DEDICATED IN MEMORY TO

WAYNE CURTIS

This copy of the minutes of the Mount Zion Baptist Association is dedicated to the memory of our friend and fellow laborer, Rev. Wayne Curtis, who was serving as pastor of Belmont Baptist Church at the time of his death. Mr. Curtis was born July 31, 1903 in Sanford, North Carolina and passed away August 11, 1971. He was the son of Charlie R. and Belle Holt Curtis. He was married to Nannie Moser Curtis who survives. Mr. Curtis was educated at Friendship High School in Alamance county and Long Creek Academy in South Carolina. He studied Music and Voice in Asheville, N.C., Lawrenceburg, Etowah, and Chattanooga, Tenn., and also in Dallas, Texas. He studied English and Effective Speech at She rw in Cody School of English, Rochester, N.Y.

Brother Curtis was licensed to preach by the First Baptist Church of Lawrenceburg, Tenn. on May 18, 1927. He was ordained at Mt. Zion Baptist Church at Berea Sept- ember 18, 1927. For many years, he did evangelistic singing in revival meetings and on radio. His only pastorate was Belmont Baptist Church where he faithfully served for thirty -two years. He was active in the Federated Ministerial Association and served on several of the county organization's committees.

His fellowship among us will be missed, but our remembrance of his love for Christ and the Church he served will be a constant reminder to us of his genuine Christian love and compassion.

SUNDAY SCHOOL

On January 1, 1971 Rev. Jack Clark assumed the duty of Associate in the Sunday School department of the North Carolina State Baptist Convention. We of the Mount Zion Association would like to extend to this able servant of God our best wishes and prayers for his future in this work.

Rev. Clark served as clerk for this association for ten years and as associational

25

Sunday School Director for one year. He also served as the pastor of Eastlawn Baptist Church from its inception on March 6, 1960 at the National Guard Armory as a mission of Glenhope Baptist Church, through the time of its constitution as a church. He re- mained as the much beloved pastor until assuming his present duties.

Rev. Clark also has served as pastor of the Ossipee Baptist Church of this Assoc- iation, and assistant pastor at Glenhope Church for a short period.

To Rev. Clark was extend our heartiest "Amen."

A need for "in depth'* Bible study in this association has come to my attention. This need is a result of a hunger for "Bible knowledge" on the part of dedicated Christians.

Upon becoming aware of this need your association has planned a study on "How to Teach the Bible". Dr. Tom Bland and others from our Wake Forest Seminary will be teaching us in this much needed area. There will be sessions for workers and teachers in the childrens, youth, and adult divisions. We wish to start intensive publicity on this in January 1972.

The study will be held in Hillsborough for the Orange County area and perhaps in Mebane or Graham for the Alamance area. The dates for the study will be April 17, 1972 and May 1, 1972 for both of these locations.

This study can have far reaching effects in and through your church. Never before have we been faced with the challenge that we have before us now as we are told by reliable authority that "one of every two people we meet on our streets or at our shopping centers has no church connection whatsoever"!

It is our fervent prayer that this "in depth" Bible study will help your church meet the needs of these "lost and unchurched" people.

Respectfully submitted J. A. Taylor, director

CHURCH TRAINING REPORT

Church Training can be one of the most vital tools of the church to proclaim the Gospel of Christ. Perhaps we need to remember that Jesus spent three years training his disciples before they were really effective. And then they only became effective as they allowed the Holy Spirit to flow through them. But they had to be trained. Perhaps our greatest difficulty with the Church Training Program today is that we do not allow the Holy Spirit to use what training we have. We are like the one -talent man; we bury our training in grounds of "fear", "don't want to get involved", and "Lack of confidence".

The Church Training Program offers so many good avenues of effectiveness for God's Kingdom. New member training, to get the new Christian on solid ground; Leadership training, to help the leader be more effective in his work; current issues training; topic discussions and other items can make your church come alive for effective living and witness for Christ.

One church is even training Sunday School teachers and preparing them weekly for next Sunday's lesson. They begin with a teaching aid and then discuss the scrip- ture for the next Sunday to get ideas rolling around in the teacher's mind for a better week of preparation. Deacons are being trained by other churches. Many other activi- ties are being done by Church Training even during the week.

Our Church Training Leadership Training Seminar, August 30-31, was a most successful event. There were 73 in Alamance and 23 in Orange making a total of 96 plus the faculty in attendance. These represented 16 churches. We are most grateful to the staff of the State Convention Church Training Department for their help in making

this opportunity available. Special thanks go to the faculty: Leadership Conferences - Sam O'Neal; New Member Orientation - Maurice Cooper; Adult Conferences - Raleigh Castelloe; Youth Leadership Conference - Albert Leath; Children's Leadership Conference - Judy Hendrix; Preschool Leadership Conference - Miss Doris Morgan. TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE TRAIN. IT IS THE CHRIST- LIKE THING TO DO.

WOMAN'S MISSIONARY UNION

The Associational Woman's Missionary Union is organized on the basis of its tasks. The officers are a team responsible for the total program. Their duties include Leadership Training, Promotion of all mission activities, and the provision of Christ- ian fellowship and inspiration for all age levels. We also attempt to interpret, en- courage and assist the local church in their efforts to "Teach Missions": "Lead Persons to Participate in Missions"; "Provide and interpret information regarding the work of the church and denomination". The Associational WMU Officers are trained in State Workshops for their duties. These officers will be delighted to come to any church if they can be of help in any phase of their missions program.

Beginning October 1, 1970, WMU age levels "took on a new look" and there was some shifting of age levels to coincide with other church organizations having adult, youth, children and pre-school divisions. Change of name and age levels of organiza- tions with corresponding magazines are as follows:

Baptist Women (ages 30 and up) - Royal Service

Baptist Young Women (ages 18-29) - Contempo

Acteens (ages 12-17) - Accent (one for members and leaders)

Girls in Action (ages 6-11) - Aware (leaders); Discovery (members)

Mission Friends (ages 4-5--Boys and girls) - Start (leaders)

Other than Mission Friends these organizations are exclusively for girls. All mis- sion activities for boys are sponsored by the Baptist Men. If there is not a Baptist Men's group, it is the responsibility of the church to elect and train someone to lead the boys from ages 6-17 in a Royal Ambassador Program. The future effectiveness of your church inmissions will be largely determined by the training of the youth of your church in missions.

For the first time, we now have a magazine for officers of WMU entitled "Dimen- sion" published quarterly. We urge every WMU Officer and age level leader to sub- scribe to this, in addition to Royal Service or the age level magazine. Most everyone is getting accustomed to name changes and materials and seem to like the "new look" given to WMU age levels.

In October 1970 a Prayer Retreat was held at Camp Mundo Vista on Associational level for Baptist Women and Baptist Young Women. There were approximately 110 in attendance who enjoyed a day of inspiration and worship. We are looking forward to another retreat October 23, 1971.

The Baptist Young Women enjoyed a "share -in" in Aug1 st 1971 at First Church, Haw River.

Many WMU officers and leaders attended the Leadership Conference at Mars Hill Church on September 28. ^-planning and evaluation of work was the emphasis in many of the age level groups in addition to explanation of duties of officers on a local level.

27

"Living the Spirit of Christ in Openess and Freedom'* was the theme for the Annual Spring Meeting. The afternoon session consisted mainly business and elec- tion of officers with emphasis on Camp Mundo Vista given by Diane Deck, Hilda Kernodle and Linda Cook. These girls had worked at Mundo Vista the summer before and they challenged us to respond to Operation Pay-Off. The night session was de- voted to inspiration and mission information. Phyllis Thomas, Missionary Journeyman brought Highlights from West Indies.

Dr. Alton Hood, Medical Missionary from Thailand, inspired and challenged all who listened.

Due to resignations early in the year of several age level directors, mission activit- ies on the associational level was limited. All age levels were privileged to partici- pate in mission studies, Home and Foreign, throughout the Association. We encourage all churches to make their emphasis on Foreign, Home and State Missions, a Church- Wide Activity. After all, the responsibility for carrying out the Great Commission is every Christian's responsibility!

Many age level groups have taken advantage of the opportunity to go to Camp Mundo Vista, either for prayer retreats, or tours, and some have attended one of the camps for a full week. The opportunities offered at Mundo Vista for worship, inspira- tion, and recreation are unlimited. We challenge you to plan "far ahead" so that your church groups can have the experiences that come with going to Mundo Vista. Reservations have to be made well in advance in order to be sure of getting the date you wish to go.

Since we no longer work toward cards of accreditation we urge each of you to either do individual study or attend courses being taught to achieve training and certi- ficates as given through the Church Study Course Awards program.

We have several new leaders on the Associational level this year. Is it their desire to get better acquainted with each leader in the local church. Please contact any one who might be able to help you in carrying out your missions program.

SUPERINTENDENT OF MISSIONS REPORT

A number of things happened this past year to make one realize that people are spires of Faith. Great things happened which made all of us aware of God's pres- ence within the church, the association and individuals.

We, as an association, have been made aware that it is only people for whom Christ died, it is only for people that He lives.

But who are people? Anauthority onworld needs stated recently that the population of the world would double in thirty years. What does he mean by population? Isn't he talking about people? When we think of people, our minds immediately turn in large groups, towns, cities or masses of people. But people is plural for individual person. When Jesus saw the multitude of people, He wept. And yet 1 believe that Jesus saw each person within the crowd as an individual who needed the word of life - eternal life that can only come through Him who became flesh that we as individuals might find our needs fulfilled through His marvelous grace.

The Association saw the need of reaching people for Christ. This vision of meet- ing these needs resulted in a new office building, better yet the building is a focal point for ministries. A man came by recently just to greet those in the office.A man

31

who has lived more than three score years and ten, and readily admitted that he was not a Christian, does not know the saving grace in Jesus. On another occasion a man walked into the office from the street to share with the Superintendent of missions the many problems that had befallen him.

These are people, and there are so many in our areas without Christ that it has created a vast population of people who are lost.

For a real experience of Christian joy, one must observe a group of laymen, Johnny P. Greene, Dunbar Stewart, Claude Dunn, and Elmer Lee Phillips, as they fellowship with a group of residents from the Alamance Correctional unit. This small group meets in the office each Monday night to discuss various aspects of life, especially the Christian life. Week by Week these laymen press the claim of Jesus upon these men who may find greater freedom through a personal experience with our Lord.

Another inspiring venture of faith as undertaken by many people of the Mt. Zion Association were Share -In Sessions. These sessions of Sharing Jesus and personal experiences with him were conducted with Deacons, Sunday School Teachers, Adults, and especially young people. Because of sharing experiences of joy, hope, sorrow and growth of those Christians present. Some came intoa deeper relationship with Jesus, and are committed to a greater involvement for his glory.

There were other activities that thrilled the hearts of the Christian this past year. The Evangelistic Conference last November had many notable men on the program, men such as Robert Bradley, Eual Lawson, Emmanuel McCall, Owen Johnson, Roy Smith and other denominational leaders. These men brought spiritual maturity into the lives of those attending these conferences.

This summer the Association in cooperation with the Fairview Baptist Church had a ministry in the West Hillsborough area. This task of faith was very rewarding to all leaders.

It is people, Christian people that are spires of faith. When one thinks of a spire immediately the mind draws a mental picture of a huge steeple on top of a church building. Christ thought of Peter as a rock, a solid example of faith upon which his church would be built and upon which the church would always stand. Yet today it seems that our people are looking up for a glimpse of real faith in the believer. Masses of people are looking for hope, security, and trying to find peace of mind in many things the world now offers them, but we know that security and peace of mind are acquired through a personal experience of faith in Jesus as Lord and Savior.

The spire of faith which can reach to heaven, by a compassionate heart, can em- brace the whole world with love, love for those who are not of the household of faith. A willingness to venture out into the unknown areas of spiritual development, and ministries can make us spires of faith.

There are a number of things the people of Mt. Zion should consider for this coming year. Ministries and programs as we dream of can be accomplished during the church year of 71-72. We need a worker to assist the smaller churches in planning and carrying out activities for their young people. This worker can assist the pastor, and the church leaders, in ministering to youth of our own bodies. After all, isn't it best to have a preventive program rather than to learn that we must have programs for those who have fallen by the wayside? Isn't it better that we keep the interest of our youth within the church, guide them to a real growth with Jesus, than to sup- port half-way houses for those who may become dope addicts, alcoholics, and etc.? This person employed by the Association would also work with the courts in trying to reach the youth in trouble. We have the promise for half this person's support at the present. How wonderful it would be if some good dedicated laymen would assist us in picking up the tab for the other half of the worker's salary. This would be a great project utterly dependent upon those who desire to become spires of faith, which will

32

glorify the name of Jesus, and perhaps save some youngsters from lives of degrada- tion.

Another challenge to face us this year will be our ministry to the elderly people. The needs of these retirees must have more of our attention and ministries. These people expect some form of ministries from their churches and the Association,, And rightly so, for it seems that most churches use people in leadership capacity while in their years of productivity. The youth are not used fully because of lack of experience, the elderly are not used to their fullest capabilities because of age. Isn't it possible through some acts of faith that we can give experience to the youth, and use the ex- perienced to greater glories for Christ. Never, never should we permit a person to waste away spiritually while the whole world is lost in sin.

In the ninth chapter of John is a story about a man whom 1 believe to be one of the great biblical heroes. He was born blind, sat on the streets begging, then came along a man who had a pleasing voice and a compassionate heart. He took one look at the blind man, rubbed his spittle in the clay and then placed this mixture on the blind man's eyes. The blind man was told by this pleasing voice to wash in a pool nearby, this he did, and behold his sight was given to him. The man born blind did not see his benefactor, and could only recognize him by his voice. But, oh! that voice. It left an impact on this blind man's life. He was interrogated by the church leaders, excommun- icated from the church which was the same as being a social outcast, and yet this for- mer blind man asked the church leaders, "will you also become his disciples?" A real spire of faith who yet had not seen the master face to face.

Each of us have met the master face to face through a real genuine experience of the new birth. We also know how he looks spiritually, through the eyes of those who wrote our new testament.

Once we too, were blind, but now we see! Can each of us be content to do any less than the man in the story? Can we deny His love by failing to ask "Have you met the Master?" "Will you also become His disciple?"

Only our actions will answer the question, "Am 1 a spire of faith?"

ASSOCIATIONAL MISSIONS --THE NEW FRONTIER

The annual report of the Missions Committee of the Mt. Zion Association

Complex social structures and wide- spread social problems have brought about a need for a better informed and more vital Christian witness. Rising costs of everything from lots to literature have produced a need for cooperative effort. These and other factors, have resulted in a growth of the importance of associational missions until today it is virtually the new frontier of Christian missions. Associational missions has, basically, a two -fold approach. One phase is to strengthen the various programs and activities of the churches; the other is to lengthen the ministries of the churches through the establishment of new cooperative mission efforts.

In the strengthening phase, the associational missions committee has been happy to encourage and participate in the ministry of the new office. We see the office not just as a building, but as a primary resource for the churches to use in improving their own programs. Information and helps for virtually every type church program are available through the associational office. For example, this summer Bible Schools were able to train some of their pupils in mission awareness through visits to the office. Church leaders need only to call the office to be put in contact with resources or resource people who can help with almost any church problem. As a part of this

33

new service, a full-time secretarial position was created and a qualified young woman, Mrs. Reu Hudson, was secured to try to help answer the questions of the churches and their leaders.

Another strengthening ministry has been to process applications for financial aid from the state convention. This year our association received over $9,000.00 in aid from our North Carolina Convention.

The Missions Committee has sought to serve as a resource for the churches when this was requested. At the request of one church, the committee helped in the location of inter ium pastoral leadership while, at the same time, training the pulpit committee and the deacons.

As a part of the lengthening aspect of associational missions, the committee worked once again with a group of Hillsboro area churches in providing a summer week-day program. As in previous years this was financed jointly by the Home Mis- sion Board, the State Baptist Convention, the Association, and the local churches. Miss Gloria Kimball was the worker this summer.

The committee has continued to keep in touch with the Holly Hill Mission which is growing both in size and in understanding of the ministry of a church. We are deep- ly gratified and grateful for the leadership of Dr. Thomas Bland as interium pastor.

Last year in this report we called attention to areas where we hoped to get some- thing started. We can't claim the credit, but we are grateful for ministries with mobile home parks and with prisoners. This summer several churches had Vacation Bible Schools in Mobile home parks and some of these have produced continuing ministries. Also a prison fellowship was begun by a group of laymen under the leadership of the Supt. of missions. This fellowship has been so successful that paroled prisoners have continued to attend the meetings and transferred prisoners have sought to have fellow- ships of a similar nature set up in their new prisons.

We are deeply grateful to those who have worked so hard this year in seeking to extend the arms of Christ to a lost world. That world with all its different types of peoples and problems is now in our own neighborhood. The association is, in fact, the New Frontier of missions.

Respectfully submitted, Charles L. McMillan, Jr., dim. Associational Missions Committee

REPORT ON EVANGELISM

There is a renewed interest among Baptists in evangelism. This was evident by the high interest in the State Evangelism Conference of this year and expecially by the Youth Evangelism Night on February 2, 1971. On this night almost 20,000 young people and adults overflowed the Greensboro Coliseum and the War Memorial Auditorium. There were 1519 decisions made by the youth in this service. Many young people from our own churches attended this service.

There is great interest throughout the Southern Baptist Convention in the new WIN materials on lay witnessing and the one week Lay Evangelism schools. Clinics will be held in January for our association to study these materials. Rev. W.C. Lamb and Rev. Jimmy Hinson of our State Evangelism Department will lead in these clinics. They will be held at First Church, Graham on January 24, 1972 and at Fairview Baptist Church, on January 31, 1972. Your participation in these clinics is greatly desired.

Evangelism received a tremendous boost in Mount Zion in the Associational Evangelistic Conference held in First Church, Graham, November 23 & 24, 1971.

34

The spirit of this meeting was high and for those who attended it was a mountain top experience.

Let us keep evangelism in its rightful place. Let us continue to emphasize evan- gelism as one of the basic tasks of the church.

Respectfully submitted, H.D0 Booth

YOUTH AND FAMILY SERVICES MINISTRY

The past year has been spent, largely, in keeping court and other interested per- sonnel aware of the availability of the youth and family services ministry, and in ministering directly to young people and to families. We had hoped that a series of Youth and Family conferences in disadvantaged areas would be possible but, for various reasons, this goal did not materialize.

One of the accomplishments of the ministry was the sending of nine boys to sum- mer camp. Four of these went to Fort Caswell with a group from Kinnett Memorial Baptist Church, and five went to Camp CaRAway. Two churches - Fellowship Baptist Church and First Baptist Church, Burlington provided scholarships for three ol the boys. One paid his own way and private funds were found for the other four. There were at least three conversion experiences among these boys.

In addition to this, we have ministered to three boys on a sponsorship basis, and the Director has counselled with a number of boys and their families.

In carrying out these responsibilities, the Director has traveled 3,693 miles, held 78 conferences with young people, their families, with people from Mt. Zion Baptist Association, and with professional personnel, and has attended 13 meetings of people interested in youth and their problems. He also attended a four-week seminar on Urban Studies at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary.

In the next year we hope to continue to discover boys who can be helped by a spon- sorship type program, and continue to hope for a series of Youth and Family Con- ferences in disadvantaged areas. We also plan to provide a series of conferences for our Church people on the problems young people face today.

We reiterate the three recommendations made in last year's report and ask that the Churches of Mt. Zion Association consider them:

1. That each church in Mt. Zion Association establish a Youth and Family Ser- vices Committee. This Committee could keep the needs of this ministry before the churches and could provide a point of contact between the Director and the churches.

2. That each church provide, in its budget, an amount to send one or two youngsters to one of our Baptist Assemblies in the summer and that churches having groups going to one of the assemblies provide space for one, two, or more such youngsters.

3. That the Baptist Men, Baptist Women, or other interested group in each church sponsor the study of one of the several books available on juvenile rehabilitation and services to families in need.

Respectfully submitted, E.J. Barbour, Jr., Director

MUSIC MINISTRY

The annual session of Mt. Zion Baptist Association ended its centennial year last October with many types of music used in the five sessions. The meetings featured an adult associational choir in costumes of a century ago, singing hymns at least 100 years old , and a combined adult-youth choir which thrilled our hearts with the singing of "Battle Hymn of the Republic" by Ringwald and the contemporary "One World, One Lord, One Witness'* by William J. Reynolds. The old fashioned pump organ was played and youth handbell ringers were used. In addition, Dr. Sidney Reber of the Foreign Mission Board, and Charles Storey, who grew up in Mt. Zion association and has done an outstanding work as minister of music in several North Carolina Baptist churches, inspired us as they sang.

On October 25, 1970, Richard Ham came to us from Church Music Department of SBC and conducted the associational youth choir in the musical "Now Hear It Again," with taped accompaniment. Mrs. Jimmy Sparks had directed the youth in preparation for the performance. Also, an associational Junior Choir (a "first" for us), presented several numbers directed by Margaret Cantrell.

The associational Music Workshop held January 25-28, 1971 in First Baptist, Gra- ham, although not as large in number as hoped for, reached more than half of our churches and at least six churches outside our association. The quality of the work done was excellent. Charles Gatwood, associate in the Church Music Department of Baptist State Convention, Gerald Armstrong, consultant in church music for the Sunday School Board of SBC and Gerald Carter, minister of music at First Baptist of Lexingfon, N.C. were the faculty along with several local directors. Our sincere thanks to our own ministers for promoting the workshop and allowing us the Wednesday night session.

Increased sharing of ideas and materials has been done in Mt. Zion music areas during the past year.

While it has been a good year and very exciting, the surface has only been scratch- ed in this field. Please join me in prayer that the coming years will see more aware- ness of what music can mean in worship and for more dedication from those entrust- ed with this phase of the work. Pray that more young people will listen to God's call for surrender in the field of church music. There is a tremendous need here and a great blessing in store for those who will heed the call.

Respectfully submitted, Mrs. Juluis F. Thompson, Jr.

REPORT ON ORDINATION COMMITTEE

Since we last met Harvey Walker was ordained by the Glen Raven Baptist Church, Let's continue to pray that God will be calling others "to be ministers of Jesus Christ, ministering the gospel ..." Romans 15:16.

Respectfully submitted, J. Hoyt Roberson

REPORT OF PASTOR'S CONFERENCE

Mount Zion Pastor's Conference was a warm fellowship shared in the monthly meetings of the Ministers' Conference. The leadership the pastors demonstrated in promoting the ministries and activities of the association was wonderful indeed.

An expression of love and concern was made when one church in the association experienced financial difficulty when a Bond Company failed to operate sufficiently. Pastors and churches shared their love through prayer and financial assistance.

Pastors led out in one of the finest evangelistic conferences ever held in the Mount Zion Association.

Another thing of importance was the promoting and preaching on Associational Missions, its fellowship, its needs, during the later part of August.

Pray that God will continue to lead pastors and churches to greater heights in Christian living and experience.

Respectfully submitted, J. Hoyt Roberson, President

HISTORIAN'S REPORT

Mount Zion Baptist refuse to let the grass grow beneath their feet,' they simply will not be still long enough for that. A quick glance at some of the services being rendered is proof sufficient. MISSIONS is the one word inclusive of what is being done, some by the Baptists of local churches, some by the corporate fellowship of Baptists within the Mount Zion Association.

Most of the work is not really new. For instance, a ministry to silent people was begun as early as 1961 in the Kinnett Memorial Baptist Church. Mrs. Lucille Andrew, first inspired when planning a WMU program in April 1959, and new director of the work for the deaf in that local church, has an interesting story to tell. Since the late summer of 1962, the Kinnett Memorial Baptist Church has been meeting the spiritual needs of the deaf in this area. Training classes have been provided for those who would become interpreters. Sunday School classes and church training units have been at work. Vacation Bible School and camping experiences have been made possible for the youngsters and the teen agers who cannot hear. Interpreters have been supplied for public meeting such as the Leighton Ford Crusade of 1964. Mrs. Andrew states that around 65 adults and 20 silent children have been touched by this ministry. At present, there are 10 hearing persons within the membership of Kinnett Memorial equipped to assist in this service to our silent friends.

Significant, too, is the work being done with mentally retarded children by the First Baptist Church, Graham. Becoming disturbed by the fact that there was not a single Sunday School for these children in Alamance County, a rather detailed study of the situation led the church to organize a class in 1969. Pastor Ralph Jones tells us that the nondenominational class provides a Bible Study period which extends into a worship service. Parents feel free to leave their retarded children in the care of well trained persons and go on to attend services in a church of their choosing.

The special ministries of the Association are not limited to work with these with physical and mental difficulties, for help is also being offered these with social, economic problems. Licensed by the State of North Carolina, is the child care center of Graham's First Baptist Church. From 6:30 A.M. until 6:00 P.M. the Center begun

37

in 1969 cares for children from the ages of two through five, rendering a much needed service to those homes where both parents find it neccessary to be engaged in out- side employment.

Miss Lounelle Sells joined the staff of the Hocutt Memorial Baptist Church, Burlington as director of its week-day ministries. She has a most challenging story to share with her fellow Baptists as she reviews her work in that area of change and shifting population. Gratifying is her report of service through recreation, Bible Study, tutoring, counseling, and so forth. The Program is reaching both whites and blacks, and is designed to give assistance to any who have become VICTIMS of life's problems rather than VICTORS over them.

Such, too, is the ministry being carried on in the Hillsborough section of the Association. The Association, North Carolina Convention, and Home Missions Board have jointly worked through Hillsborough* s First Baptist Church, Mars Hill Baptist Church, and the Cross Roads Baptist Church to maintain a Center of Christian Social Activities at the Fairview Baptist Church. Miss Gloria Kimball has been directing a program for children from ages 6 to 12, and meeting twice a week with youngsters from 13 up. Aid has been given to families beset with the problems of alcohol and material waste. Miss Kimball says that one of the most challenging parts of her work has been that with a group of girls between the ages of nine and twelve years who regularly visit an area nursing home, leaving little gifts which they themselves have made.

What our Superintendent of Missions describes as "one of the most thrilling ministries" is our effort to be of help to that group of men whose problems have tem- porarily taken them out of the normal social habitat and placed them in North Car- olina's correctional institutions. Mr. Frank Ingram and Mr. Johnny Green made it clear from the beginning that Baptists of the Association were not trying to get these men released, or even paroled. To discuss reasons for their imprisonment was not our purpose. As Christians, we wanted the privilege of sitting down with the prisoners, who wanted to talk about lifes normal experiences, and to improve their own emotion- al basis for getting back into the stream of society. Of course, sessions with these men have been periods of Bible Study and counseling.

Mr. Green says that it is not so much a ministry TO prisoners as it is a fellowship WITH them. Growing in its outreach, this service and fellowship has already produced some very fine results.

Mount Zion Baptist have been on the alert lest the needs of our territory be over- looked. From August 2-6, Miss Gloria Kimball directed a Vacation Bible School for the children of the Colonial Hills section of Hillsborough, an area described by the chairman of the Association Missions Committee as "Inudated by mobil homes"? placed upon lots which can be used for permanent building sites. A primary purpose of this Vacation Bible School was to furnish a means of re -evaluating the situation in that area. It is felt that some permanent ministry is needed in Colonial Hills where the fairview Church owns a lot; by the end of the summer, whether to institute a Bible Study or preaching ministry, or to begin a new church should be clear.

Whatever seems best, Mount Zion Baptists want to do. While the nature of the area differs, the new church in the Holly Hill Community is evidence of the readiness of the Association to meet whatever need may exist. In February, 1970, representatives of seven of our churches- -A ltamahaw, Brookwood, Burlington* s First, Grove Bark, Haw River, Hocutt Memorial and Northside--met with parties interested in the orga- nization of Baptist work in Holly Hills and decided to rent the gymtorium of the Smith School. On March 1, 1970 the Holly Hill Mission was organized with 24 members. Mr. Thomas Hill was asked to give guidance to the work until it could be well es- tablished. Dr. Howard Ford, director of State Missions in North Carolina was secured as preacher for the first month, and was followed by the Reverend Mr. Ernest Up-

38

church, also with our State Convention, who preached the second month. Pulpit personalities varied from Sunday to Sunday till September, 1970 when Dr0 Thomas Bland of the Southeastern Theological Seminary was called as interim pastor. The name of the Holly Hill Mission was changed to the Holly Hill Baptist Chapel, and Mr. Hill serves no longer as temporary guide but as a permanent member. An Ad- ministrations Committee made up of representatives from the sponsoring church- es, Chapel, and the Associations Missions Committee has served as guide through this year of organizing the young people, Vacation Bible School, and the Youth Re- treat. The first anniversary of the Chapel was observed with a fellowship supper on March 7, 1971. From a beginning with 24 members the Chapel now boasts a mem- bership of 63, with a total of 74 in Sunday School. With both the gymtorium and cafeteria in use, a committee is presently trying to find a suitable building site for the first unit of their building program.

And the Association still looks for more ways to meet the needs of our area. When talk of moving the Associations office out of the home of the Superintendent began, he voiced objections unless the moves could make possible a ministry yet unperformed. Immediate attention was given to the idea of a public place where business people might have a chance to pause for a moment of prayerful medita- tion, or where employees burdened with intolerable pressures could find someone to help share their loads. Failing to locate a suitable house or building, negotiations with Mr. Hugh Cummings to erect an office structure in Cum -Park Plaza failed to materialize at the last minute when the committee reported prohibited costs. During their continued search, Mr. C.R. Byrd and Mr. Watson Byrd donated a lot to the Asso- ciation; leasing it back, Mr. C.R. Byrd arranged for and had contructed our present Association headquarters. With landscaping and black topping another gift of C.R. Byrd-- Open House was held on May 16, 1971. Mr. James Dunn, our Moderator pre- siding. Dr. Howard Ford and Mr. Ernest Upchurch cut the ribbons, and the Reverend Mr. Charles McMillan presented the keys to Mr. Frank Ingram, our Superintendent of Missions. The new Associational office has been and will be a busy place from now on.

Respectfully submitted, J.H. Waugh, Jr.

THE HOLLY HILL BAPTIST CHAPEL

The mission which was started in the Holly Hill Mall area of Burlington in Feb- ruary of 1970 is now in its second year. Progress has been steady. The future is bright. We are grateful to God, to those who have committed themselves to be- come a part of this work, and to the churches of the Mount Zion Baptist Association. At the end of September, 1971, our Sunday School enrollment was 92 and the aver- age attendance for the year was 59.

As we begin a new year on October 1, 1971, our most pressing physical need is for a building site and the first unit of a building. A joint committee from the asso- ciation on the chapel is seeking a suitable building site. We know that the purchase of a building site will be costly. May God lay it on the hearts of the members of the churches of this association to share in this purchase and in the beginnings of a building program for a new work that shows g-reat promise in strengthening our Baptist witness in the Mount Zion Association.

Respectfully submitted, Thomas A. Bland

ASSOCIATIONAL FOUNDATION

The North Carolina Baptist Foundation, Inc., was organized in 1920. It has a fifteen- member Board of Directors elected by the Baptist State Convention. The policies and procedures of the Foundation and the support of the same is in the hands of the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina. In other words, this is your Foundation,

41

and you should know more about its services and activities.

During the past twelve months, the Foundation has had a gradual growth, in that several individuals and churches have made contracts with the Foundation to ac- complish specific purposes such as: supporting an agency or institution of the Bap- tist State Convention, the Southern Baptist Convention, and world-wide objects. In one or two instances, individuals through their wills have added to existing memo- rials that were established during the lifetime of the donor. The Foundation stands ready to render service to individuals and churches as their requests are made known. We wish to serve you.

BAPTIST HOSPITAL

Your Baptist Hospital admitted 17,557 persons in 1970 for a total of 150,174 days of care. In addition, there were 51,563 visits to outpatient clinics, including 17,241 to the Emergency Room. About 90% of these were "referral patients --that is, patients were referred to our Hospital by their local phsicians because they needed the specialized medical care our Hospital is staffed and equipped to offer.

Our Hospital, from the day of its beginning, has provided good medical care for our people, including care for persons who cannot pay the cost. There has been great progress in medicine and tremendous increase inhospital costs, and these have made some policy changes necessary. The basic policy of providing care --now the highly specialized care for the more difficult cases --for those who cannot pay has not chang- ed. This Chritian ministry is at the heart of the work of our Baptist Hospital

The financial situation of the Hospital is viewed by the administration with "cautious optimism". The operating deficit has been reduced and expenditures are being kept more nearly in line with income. The entire staff is cooperating in an ef- fort to maintain a proper balance between sound financial policies and a spirit of Christian compassion.

The Medical Center Development Program is progressing on schedule. The new patient Tower is expected to be ready for partial occupancy by late 1972. The 14 bed coronary care unit will open about September, 1971. A statewide Development Campaign, initiated with pledges totaling $177,182 from employees of the Medical Center, is moving toward successful completion.

Baptist Hospital offers a ministry of healing in Christ's name to all who need it. It seeks to fulfill the same purpose in North Carolina that a Baptist Hospital operated by our Foreign Mission Board seeks to fulfill in Korea or Nigeria. It ought to be sup- ported by missionary -minded Baptists with the same enthusiasm and for the same reason we support every other phase of our denominations World Mission Program. This is missions too.

THE DEPARTMENT OF INTERRACIAL COOPERATION

An important event of the past year was to welcome the Reverend Leo Williams, Jr., to the staff as Director of Christian Education. He is a part of the expanding cooper- ative ministries sponsored by the General Baptist State Convention and the Baptist State Convention.

This summer a record number of 30 young people and adults were appointed to serve in a variety of places throughout the state. They have ministered primarily to young people in Bible camps, week-day programs, day-care centers, and vacation Bible Schools. From the mountains to the coast they have ministered in churches of both conventions, reaching the youth of all races.

42

For the first time applications for summer work were rejected because funds were not available. The summer of 1972 may result in the same problem unless additional resources are provided. We are hoping that individuals and churches will see fit to help provide funds for this project.

Another objective of the department is to provide programs and materials to General Baptist churches and associations upon request. This is another way whereby the various departments may cooperate in reaching, teaching, and training people. Leaders of the General Convention are invited to reciprocate by providing messages and materials to aid individuals and churches in the Baptist State Convention. This exchange of talents and information helps us to get the best from both conventions, while improving rela- tionships between the races.

As our young people become better acquainted in public schools, colleges and in the military, they are placing greater demands on their churches and denominations to be racially inclusive in their ministries.. We are eager to help pave the way for those congregations who believe that the Great Commission involves a challenge to reach all people with the gospel.

Those who serve within these cooperative ministries are especially happy to provide their services to churches and associations of both Baptist state conventions. In addition to the Director they are Mrs. Mary E. Washington, Office Secretary; C.C. Craig, Jr., Raleigh; Leo Williams, Jr., Raleigh; J.Z. Alexander, Raleigh; Benjamin Daniels, Win- ston-Salem; and Mrs. Alcovia O. McCall, Asheville.

NORTH CAROLINA BAPTIST HOMES FOR THE AGING

Our North Carolina Baptist Homes for the Aging celebrated their 20th anniversary in March of this year. During these two decades, the story of our Homes has been one of faith and the abundant blessing of God upon this special ministry to older people. God has brought us from one Home, and one resident in 1951, to five Homes and a Nursing Care Unit, with total accommodations for 160 residents and 76 patients. Two of these Homes, Resthaven and the Hayes Home, and the Nursing Care Unit are located in Winston-Salem, and the other three LJomes are located in Albemarle, Hamilton, and Yanceyville. In these homes, our residents are loved, and we feel that there is no greater security that they could have and no better care that they could receive.

The past year has been one of the best ever, and we are rejoicing in the blessings that have come from God through our Baptist people. Support for the Homes from the churches, through the Cooperative Program and the Special Day Offering, has been most encouraging. For the last three years, the Homes have had an alarming deficit and have operated it the red. We have not yet reached the point of operating in the black, but let us say, that with hopeful optimism, we are approaching this time. The deepened con- cern of our Baptist People and the increase in gifts have been strong contributing factors to the success of the past year.

At least 80% of the people who live in our Baptist Homes are financially needy persons and benefit directly from the love gifts of North Carolina Baptists. They simply could not be maintained, and the Homes could not be operated without the Special Offering designated gifts from the churches, and the Cooperative Program. We would urge our Baptist people, therefore, to remember how dependent these dear older people are on them and would challenge them to give more liberally than ever and to see that their gifts are a real life-line in the on- going of this ministry.

Of unusual interest during the past year has been the construction of the new addi- tion to the Nursing Care Unit in Winston- Salem. It is anticipated that this new facility

.. 43

will be ready for occupancy by September 1. It will make available 20 additional beds and bring the total care capacity of the Nursing Care Unit to 76. This addition was made possible by the generous challenge gift of $80,000.00 from Judge and Mrs. William York, of Greensboro. The trustees accepted the challenge and raised an additional $80,000.00.

Pray for your Baptist Homes for the Aging and remember that any ministry to an older person in the name of Christ is a direct ministry to Him.

NORTH CAROLINA BAPTIST CHILDREN'S HOME

Let a graduating senior express what it is like to live in one of our Baptist Chil- dren's Homes: "I really do not know how to write about a place which has been so fine, and which has given me the opportunity to worship, work, and learn; not only where we stand in moments of comfort and convenience, but where we stand in mo- ments of challenge and moments of controversy. After all these years, one finally learns that certain values and practices are good and sound and help children to feel secure and happy."

This statement could be made by almost any senior regarding his home and com- munity, for a child in the care of the Baptist Children's Home has basically the same attitudes and values as other children. He differs from other children only in the tragic experiences which have made it necessary for him to live away from his family. For these children, it is our mission to provide loving care in the spirit of Jesus Christ. We want to work in harmony with what we sense God is doing in the life of each child, enabling the child to tap his own inner resources and grow to responsible adulthood.

The pursuit of this basic goal has led the Children's Homes to develop a variety of services, all family centered. Some families need resident care for their children and for these we have group homes and foster homes. Some families can remain together with outside help and for these we have family services in the form of counseling or financial assistance. For the unmarried girl who is pregnant, we offer maternity care. For the graduate in our care, we assist in higher education. For churches involved in day care, we provide a demonstration program and consultation service. We welcome individual inquiries regarding any of these services as the need may arise.

Our services are made available through strategically located facilities throughout North Carolina: in the East at Kinston, Pembroke, Fayetteville and Raleigh; in the Piedmont at Chapel Hill, Thomasville and Charlotte; in the West at Asheville and Waynesville.

Staff members and children of the Baptist Children's Homes are grateful for the harmonious relationship we have shared with North Carolina Baptists. The churches have expressed their confidence and support through increased Cooperative Program gifts and a 1970 Thanksgiving Offering of $380,000.00. Individuals continue to give generously and to become involved in our varied ministries. We accept this support as an investment in all that we are doing and we pledge ourselves to translate your investment into quality Christian child care.

REPORT OF STUDENT WORK

The Department of Student Work of the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina seeks to minister to those on the various college and university campuses in this state.

44

Across North Carolina there are more than 125,000 students enrolled in over 70 institutions of higher learning. The Department of Student Work has campus chaplains or BSU directors on 30 of these campuses. Many of these ministers are local pastors or faculty members who serve in a volunteer or part-time capacity.

Beyond the local campus there are other opportunities for student involvement. During the 1970-71 school year the BSU Fall Convention was held at Ridgecrest Baptist Assembly. Approximately 400 students participated in this program. A conference for International Students was held during the Thanksgiving holidays at North Carolina Baptist Assembly. Caswell was also the site for the BSU Spring Conference. There were 300 students attending this meeting.

During the summer months students were involved in various outreach projects. Six students formed the RHYMES WITH REASONS, a Christian folk team. The students toured North Carolina sharing their faith through music. The majority of their concerts were in resort areas. The Apostoloi Team, composed of two boys and two girls, spent ten weeks of the summer in churches in the Carolina Association. Ten students were involved in mission and ministry in Morehead City. This beach ministry project was coordinated through the Bogue Banks Ministry Inc.

The work of the Student Department is a part of the total witness of State Mis- sions. The staff and personnel of this department stand ready to assist the local church in its ministry to students. Likewise, the department needs the support and assistance of each local church as it attempts to minister on the campus.

REPORT OF THE BIBLICAL RECORDER

At a time when some religious publications are losing circulation, it is good to report that the BIBLICAL RECORDER has passed 93,000-- thehighest circulation in its 138 year history. This circulation is a tribute to the Baptists of North Carolina who support the paper so faithfully.

Even though inflation continues to create problems, you can receive the RECORDER under the Church Budget Plan for the same price it was in I960-- only $2.00 a year. It is not known how long this reasonable price can be made available and this is all the more reason churches should enlist immediately.

The RECORDER likes to report all the good news it can about Baptists. The paper is proud to be the instrument that communicates to the world what our denomination is doing. When evil needs to be exposed, however, the RECORDER does not shun it. This was evidenced again in the legislature this year as the liquor forces managed only small gains. And these may turn out to be unconstitutional. We are referring to the local option liquor by the drink elections in Moore and Mecklenburg Counties. The RECORDER stresses Christian citizenship. Perhaps this is one reason the paper continues to reach more and more people --it stands for something.

The RECORDER appreciates every reader and supporter. The cost is reasonable. You can receive the RECORDER under the Church Budget Plan for only 40 a week --half the cost of mailing a letter. There is no more economical way to have an informed member- ship than by sending the RECORDER to every family.

Respectfully Submitted, J. Marse Grant, Editor

ANNUITY BOARD

As prices of goods increased andthevalueof the dollar decreased in 1970, a large number of Baptist pastors, church staff members and denominational employees moved to provide greater protection in the years ahead for themselves and their families. Most of these persons did so by increasing their Southern Baptist Protection Program participation to at least ten per cent of total salary.

While members upgraded, the Annuity Board was introducing Good Experience Credit. This gives Protection Program members benefits over and above the amounts set forth in their certificates.

Increased benefits are made possible by interest earnings in excess of the Pro- tection Program's initial actuarial assumptions. Since January 1, 1970, active members received Good Experience Credit in the form of increases in retirement credits accured.

Retired persons also get Good Experience Credit. Persons receiving benefits other than education, variable or fixed period are getting four per cent more income each month.

Each retired person, or widow, also received a "13th Check" for 1970 amounting to 8.33 per cent of his annual benefit. It was the fifth consecutive year the "13th Check" had been given and amounted to $424,594.00.

In its 53 year history, the Annuity Board has paid benefits amounting to $82.1 million; $8.4 million was paid in benefits during 1970.

An Annuity Board protection program is available to cover all the needs of a pastor, church staff member or denominational employee. Many churches help by paying the dues in retirement and life and health insurance plans. Information on any part of the Annuity Board's programs may be obtained from the state convention office or from the Development Division, Annuity Board, SBC, 511 North Akard Building, Dallas, Texas 75201.

CHRISTIAN LIFE COMMISSION REPORT

The Christian Life Commission's emphasis on applied Christianity is finding good acceptance among Southern Baptists. In the associations, state conventions, and various Southern Baptist Convention agencies, there is a growing commitment to Christian action. The response of local churches has been especially encouraging.

During the past year, numerous articles and stories on applied Christianity were channeled by the Commission through practically all of the state Baptist papers, Southern Baptist Convention agency publications, and other mass media outlets. Trie Commissions literature program has been substantially strengthened by ten new "Issues and Answers" pamphlets covering the subjects of aging, capital punishment, consumer credit, generation gap, open housing, pollution, population explosion, sex education, revolution, and taxation. The Commission now has some 70 tracts in print and available for helping churches emphasize the practical dimensions of the Christian faith. A complete and illustrated order form is available upon request.

The Christian Life Commission's conference program has developed especially well during the past year. The largest national seminar ever sponsored by the Com- mission was held in New York in March on "National Priorities and Christian Re- sponsibility" with more than 400 in attendance. Threeof the addresses from the con- ference were carried nationally on the National Broadcasting Company's "Faith in Action" program. All the addresses have been printed in booklet form and are available

46

from the Commission for $2.50 as a study resource. Four regional conferences schedul- ed for 1971 have proven to be a new and helpful way of getting the Commissions' emphasis on applied Christianity out to a wider audience than ever before.

A new approach to providing pastors and other church leaders with resource ma- terials on the pressing moral issues of our times has been utilized this year. Three carefully researched resource papers on pollution, urban crisis, and drugs have been printed and inserted in HOME MISSIONS magazine, and others are projected for the future.

THE CITY AND METROPOLITAN MISSIONS DEPARTMENT

Generally speaking, State Missions in North Carolina can be divided into two major categories: (1) ministries that STRENGTHEN and (2) ministries that LENGTHEN the witness of local churches.

STRENGTHENING ministries involve the various church program organizations such as Sunday School, Church Training, WMU, Brotherhood, etc. These are programs that better enable local churches to realize their own mission potential.

State Missions ties into all of this by providing resources and personnel that as- sist in the development of these ministries. Workshops, seminars, and conferences are conducted each year that deal directly with the strengthening of these organizations. State Missions, therefore, helps local churches as they themselves become types of "Mission Stations" across the state.

The second type of State Missions are those ministries that LENGTHEN the witness of local churches. These are cooperative efforts that "represent" the concerns of local churches; programs that require the support of many congregations. Some examples of these ministries include Urban Missions, Interracial Cooperation, Resort, Ministries, Language Ministries, Chaplaincy, Fruitland Baptist Bible Institute, Seminary Extension, Ministry to the Deaf, etc. These are specialized programs that require the continued support of well- trained personnel. Many of these ministries are co-sponsored with the Southern Baptist Home Missions Board who provide home missionaries, as well as other resources.

Other extending ministries include Literacy Work, Migrant Missions, Mountain Missions, Week-Day Ministries and Youth and Family Services. All total, State Mis- sions involves over 50 different ministries across North Carolina. These programs serve as a vital link in the total World Mission responsibility of North Carolina Baptises.

AUDITOR'S REPORT

AUDITOR'S REPORT Executive Committee Mount Zion Baptist Association Graham, N.C. 27253

Gentlemen:

I have examined the books and records of the Mount Zion Baptist Association for the year ending September 30, 1971. All funds managed by the treasurer were reviewed. My examination was made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and procedures.

Examinations consisted of tracing receipts to deposits, cancelled checks to their record- ings, reconciling checking accounts and confirming balances.

In my opinion, all funds were appropriately handled and adequate records maintained.

Respectfully Submitted? Paul Hoyle Licensed Accountant

HISTORICAL SKETCHES OF MT. ZION CHURCHES

Brief histories of Mt. Zion Churches are recorded in the Minutes of the years as herewith listed. The Association Historian suggests that every church in the Associa- tion have copies of the Associational Minutes bound every ten years and keep them in the local church libraries. This will make the Minutes of the years available to all the churches, and those bound volumes will grow more valuable with each passing year.

Although our Association has had Historians almostfromthe date of its organiza- tion still the clerk was not able to find the history of any church recorded in the Min- utes until 1921. Just why the sketches of other years were not recorded in the Minutes is inexplainable.

At the 1874 session of the Association it was decided to elect a Historian annually. The Minutes of 1875 record that "The report of the Historian was adopted and ordered to be recorded in the "Books of Records of the Association." No trace of this book exists. The historical sketches from 1921 are shown in Minutes as follows:

IN MEMORY TO MYRTILLA QUAKENBUSH CHEEK

/; V

By action of the Mount Zion Baptist Association in annual session on October 18, 1972 at the First Baptist Church of Hillsborough, these 1972 minutes are dedicated to the memory of Myrtilla Quakenbush Cheek whose life was an example of dedicated and faithful service to our Lord, Jesus Christ.

Mrs. Cheek was born in Alamance County, November 9, 1919, and spent the greater part of her life in the community of Saxapahaw where she was a member and faithful worker in the Moore's Chapel Baptist Church. On September 2, 1972 she answered the Lord's call, "Come, ye blessed of my Father, enter thou into the joys of thy Lord."

She is survived by her husband, W. Candler Cheek, one daughter, Mrs. Rebecca Piver, two sons, Phillip Cheek and Michael Cheek, her father, J. Ceton Quakenbush, two sisters, Mrs. Coleman Henderson, and Mrs. Wallace Bradshaw, and three brothers, Wade Quakenbush, Lynn Quakenbush and J.C. Quakenbush.

Myrtilla Mae Cheek's life is a symbol of many other Christians whose lives are spent in daily service to their Lord, and whose names may never be written in history books or inscribed on monuments, but without whom the Lord's work would suffer greatly. They are among those described by the book of Hebrews as those, "Of whom the world was not worthy". Myrtilla Quakenbush Cheek is a good example of the Christian that Jesus called the Light of the World and the salt of the earth. May we honor her memory by following her example.

EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE REPORT

The regular quarterly meetings of the Executive Board were held in January, April, July and October. A special meeting was also called for February.

At the January meeting, the official resignation of our Superintendent of Missions, Frank Ingrain was received with deep regret. Comments and expressions of love and appreciation were made concerning his work in our Association and resolutions of commendation were sent to the Broad River Association in South Carolina where Brother Ingram began a new work.

The resignation of our part-time Director of Youth and Family Services, Rev. E. J. Barbour was also received with regret. Rev. Barbour resigned to become pastor of the Villa Heights Baptist Church in Martinsville, Va. His resignation was effective February 1, 1972.

In other action the budget was amended to increase the salary of the secretary from $3,640 per year to $5,140. The job description was also changed to provide for Mrs. Hudson to serve as a Secretary- Associate Missionary.

The Missions Committee recommended that the World Missions Conference scheduled for September 16 - 22, be canceled since the Association was without a Missionary,.

A special meeting was called for February 28 at which time the Missions Com- mittee headed by Rev. H.D. Booth, acting chairman, recommended that Rev. Charles L. McMillan, Jr., pastor of the Kinnett Memorial Baptist Church, be extended a call

24

to serve as Superintendent of Missions in the Mt. Zion Association. A motion was made that a call be extended to Rev. McMillan and this was unanimously carried. The Superintendent was to begin work on May 1, 1972.

A report from the committee on the Missionary's Home was also received noting that a number of repairs needed to be made that would total more than $1,026.40. A motion was made and adopted for the Chairman of the Committee, Mr. Howard Steelman, to proceed with the repairs.

At the quarterly meeting in April, Paul Craig made a plea for volunteers to help with the repairs on the Missionary's Home. Volunteer help subsequently made it possible for more work to be done for the same amount of money.

H.G. Foster, Chairman of the committee on committees made the following recom- mendations: (1) That W.W. Donaldson and Ben Cox fill the two vacancies on the Mis- sions Committee for the balance of the year and that Rev. H.D. Booth serve as Chm. of the Missions Committee. Both recommendations were approved.

The Missions Committee made two recommendations. First, that Mrs. Reu Hudson be paid 120 a mile for travel necessary in her work for the Association. Secondly, that Rev. Travis Styles, serve as interim director of the Youth and Family Service. These were approved by the Executive Board.

It was announced that Altamahaw would dedicate its new sanctuary April 16 and that Holly Hill Chapel would be chartered as a church on May 21, 1972.

The Executive Board met at First Baptist Church of Graham, July 17. In addition to the regular reports of the organizations, the membership committee of the Associa- tion in the person of Rev. Ralph Jones, Chairman, moved that the Holly Hill Baptist Church be accepted under watchcare until a complete report could be made to the Annual Session. The motion was adopted.

The proposed budget for the 72-73 year was presented and after discussion was amended to raise the item of Youth Ministry from $600.00 to $1,000.00. The budget as amended was given the approval of the Executive Board.

The October meeting of the Executive Board was brief but interesting as the mem- bership committee brought two items. The first of these was the announcement that the Holly Hill Baptist Church would be presented to the Annual Session for membership in the Association. The second item was a request from the Deep Creek Baptist Church that they be removed from membership in the Mt. Zion Association. The first item was given the approval of the Executive Board and after discussion on the second, it was agreed that Deep Creek's letter of withdrawal should be accepted with regret.

There has been a good spirit in all our meetings and we are grateful for the work of every person.

Respectfully submitted, James Dunn, Moderator

SUNDAY SCHOOL REPORT

We do not have access to the figures for this year of our S.S. enrolment and at- tendance but for the previous ten years, our reports have indicated a steady downward trend.

In recognizing this fact, the following goals are suggested for the coming year in the Bible teaching arm of the church, the Sunday School.

Goal I: To encourage a renewed enthusiasm for outreach and evangelism.

In order to implement this goal, we encourage your Sunday School to:

(1) Conduct a People- to- People emphasis as soon as possible

(2) Plan for a Realife Conference in your Church in September 1973.

(3) Conduct a "people search" in your church and community.

(4) Plan to attend the one- night Sunday School Revivals March 26 and 27, 1973.

(5) Encourage attendance at the WIN Conference April 2-5.

25

(6) Plan for VBS workers to attend Associational Clinic April 30 and May 1,

1973 Then reach out and teach the Bible through your own Vacation

Bible School. Goal II: Provide opportunities for the improvement of Bible Teaching and under- standing through:

(1) A magnified January Bible Study, providing study for each age group. (Churches often find revival in this week of concentrated Bible study) Note: This year, there is a special study designed especially for the youth.

(2) A regional Bible Conference September 24 - 28 which will feature two outstanding Bible Teachers and Age-group leadership conferences.

(3) An upgrading of Sunday School work by your Church sending your Sunday School Director to Caswell or Ridgecrest for S.S. Leadership week.

I hope you will prayerfully consider these goals and adopt them in your Church.

Respectfully submitted,

James A. Taylor,

Associational Sunday School Director

CHURCH TRAINING REPORT

A prospective teacher sighs, "I would like to work in Sunday School, but I don't feel qualified."

The newly elected deacon confides, "What are my responsibilities?"

A young adult explains, "I believe I could help with the children's choir if I had some training".

The veteran teacher remarks, "I'm in a rut with my teaching; where can I find some help?"

The new officer in Baptist Men asks, "What am I supposed to do?"

A new WMU organization leader responds, "Will there be someone to show me how and what to do?"

What's all this???? These are CHURCH TRAINING needs!!!!!

A church's leaders and workers should be able to look to the church for training,

regardless of the task This is what the CHURCH TRAINING organization is all

about!

Leader Training materials of all kinds are available.

A church's NEW MEMBERS need and deserve the best orientation possible to aquaint them with church life, opportunities and responsibilities. NEW MEMBER training can help the new member live and exercise his new-found faith.

NEW MEMBER TRAINING materials are available.

MEMBER TRAINING materials (your choice of subjects) are available for every age group, whether you plan short-term or permanent groupings.

All CHURCH TRAINING doesn't happen on Sunday evening! Anytime a training need can be met, . . That's CHURCH TRAINING!!

If we can help evaluate your church's training needs and provide assistance in planning to meet those needs, please call on us.

Respectfully submitted,

Reu Hudson,

Associational Church Training Dir.

MUSIC REPORT

The past few years have seen music play a growing role in the outreach ministry of the local churches. It is the goal of the Associational Music program to provide opportunities for churches to discover more creative and effective ways for using music.

This year, two meetings of choir and/or Music Directors were held and some meaningful discussions took place.

An Associational Childrens' Choir Camp was held at Grove Park Baptist Church in which 105 children took part. A special word of thanks is due Miss Margaret Cantrell, Mrs. Bartialette Thompson, Mrs. Thomasene Sparks, Mr. Bob Sparks, Mrs. Regina Donaldson and several others. The total cost of the school was $321.84 of which $248.00 was paid by the participants. The remaining $75.00 was paid from the Associational treasury.

Our plans for the coming year include:

- A second Childrens' Choir Camp

- An Adult Choir Festival

- A study of the feasibility of an Associational Music Library

- Quarterly' meetings of Music Directors for planning and sharing ideas.

Respectfully submitted, Mrs. Rosemary Ester, Associational Music Director

REPORT OF WOMAN'S MISSIONARY UNION

Mt. Zion Woman's Missionary Union has endeavoured during the past year to teach missions, engage in mission action, support world missions through praying and giving, and to provide and interpret information regarding the work of the church and denomination.

In October we held a Prayer Retreat at Camp Mundo Vista and 88 women attended. Mrs. A.L. Parker of Greensboro, our former state W.M.U. president, led the Bible Study.

January 15th an age- level manual study was conducted at Mebane First Baptist Church and 45 women were able to be present for this study. We tried this study on a Saturday which perhaps was not the best time.

With our new age- level organization plan getting into high gear this year, our Associational Acteens, ages 12-17, had their first meeting on Sunday afternoon, March 19, at Mebane First Baptist Church. There were 75 young women and counselors from 7 churches in attendance. The program was planned by the Associational Acteens Planning Group led by Mrs. Charles Hubbard. This group met again on August 17 with 40 attending from 7 of our churches.

Our State W.M.U. Convention in Winston- Salem March 14-16 was well attended by members of Mt. Zion Woman's Missionary Union.

Our own annual meeting on March 21 at Grove Park Baptist Church brought representatives from 30 of our churches. With only 275 registered, it was estimated

that between 400-500 attended the evening session. Our theme, "Expect

Attempt" was carried forward from our Week of Prayer for Foreign Missions. In- spiration and information was given to us by Mrs. Samuel James, missionary home- maker from Vietnam, and Mr. and Mrs. Gary Milburn, missionary Journeymen, from Ghana, Kenya, and Tanzania. The Youth Choir at Grove Park brought our special music.

Two of our Baptist Women went to a workshop in Winston-Salem in April which was specifically geared to the work of Baptist Women.

The Associational W.M.U. Council has met quarterly to plan, coordinate, and

27

evaluate the work of our Association. In July we invited all church W.M.U. Directors and/or Baptist Women presidents to participate in this meeting preceded by a covered dish supper and followed by a short Prayer Retreat, and we had 12 of our churches represented.

Our Girls in Action, ages 6-11, had a picnic at Oak Grove Baptist Church on August 8. Thirteen churches participated with approximately 125 in attendance. Mrs. Homer Brown, a former missionary to Nigeria, spoke to the group of young girls and counselors.

Our Baptist Young Women held a Prayer Retreat at Altamahaw Baptist Church on August 14. It was a very meaningful experience for the 16 young women present.

Two of our Mt. Zion girls worked at Camp Mundo Vista this summer, Diane Keck as Director of Nature Study, and Betty Anne Mincey, Counselor in training. We ap- preciate these girls and feel that their lives have been greatly enriched by experiences there, as well as our entire Association. We do not know how many girls from Mt. Zion attended Camp Mundo Vista this summer.

During Southwide W.M.U. Week at Ridgecrest, August 10-16, 20 women from 8 of our churches gathered for much inspiration and much information. We were challenged by messages by Dr. William Pins on and others.

Your W.M.U. Director and each age- level Director attended the workshop at Camp Mundo Vista September 8-9 to prepare for the Leadership Conference September 26 at Glen Hope Baptist Church.

We measure W.M.U. work by an Achievement Guide, and an organization can be Merit, Advanced, or Distinguished. We commend the following W.M.U. organizations for 1970-71 as reports are not yet available for 1971-72.

Distinguished

For 1971-72 our Associational W.M.U. has been Distinguished.

We certainly do not want to dwell on what was accomplished or not accomplished this past year but set our sights higher for Christ in the new year. W.M.U. is thrilled over our emphases for 1972-73 which are (1) Enlistment and Enlargement and (2) Witnessing through Mission Action. We must do these things on a one-to-one basis. Let us share our faith with others as we go into the new year and truly seek to "live the Spirit of Christ in Faith and Conquest".

BAPTIST MEN REPORT

The eagerness with which men participate in community and civic organizations, and the need of men to work in the church increases our frustration over the anemic condition of most Baptist Men's organizations. We hereby pledge the Associational organization to a more relevant program of activity that will seek to meet the following goals.

30

Goal I. INVOLVE MEN AND BOYS IN MISSION STUDY

We plan to do this by encouraging the buying and using of Brotherhood literature which has information for mission programs. We further urge each local organization to participate in Church and WMU sponsored mission studies.

Goal II. INVOLVE MEN AND BOYS IN MISSION ACTION

The Associational brotherhood organization will be helping to plan and sponsor Mission Tone- Up meetings, February 19 and 20. We will plan, promote and provide an Associational Deacon and Pastor's Retreat November 3 and 4, 1972 at CaRAway. We will also plan for a Baptist Men's Rally during the year and special emphasis will be given to Layman's Day in January. In August, Laymen will be trained to speak on Associational Missions. For the R.A.'s, a summer Softball league among interested churches and an associational track meet are in the planning stages.

Goal III. UP-GRADE BAPTIST MEN'S WORK IN THE ASSOCIATION

Each church should send its Baptist Men's Director to Ridgecrest or a State training clinic.

Respectfully submitted, Rev. John B. Ray, Director

KEPORT OF THE MISSIONS COMMITTEE

One of the most demanding needs facing us today, is the personalization of our ministry to others. Sometimes churches and people say, "Give us a more 'Person to Person' ministry."

This has become a major emphasis in both our denominational and church life. Right now the major thrust of our Sunday School work is "People- to- People". This is the underlying principle that we are majoring on in all the work. Nowhere is there a greater emphasis on the People to People ministry than in our Associational Mis- sions program. Jesus saw people, so must we; Jesus had compassion on them, so must we. He saw people without direction and purpose, in great need of help, so must we. Jesus ministered to all the needs of the people, so must we!

This is what Associational Missions in Mt. Zion is about, an effort to match the needs of the people with our lives and ministry. In this consideration we have per- sonalized missions in and by Mr. Charles L. McMillan, Jr., our Superintendent of Missions. In accepting a call, a few months ago, he dedicated himself to minister in person, to thirty- eight churches and to more than 14,000 Baptists in the churches of Mt. Zion Association. He is assisted by Mrs. Reu Hudson, associate in the work, who is ready and willing to assist or minister in any way. We owe God our gratitude for these servants of His and ours.

If you really want to see missions alive, you may see it in the service of our officers, committees, the Executive Board and the officers of various Associational auxiliaries. All these people are dedicated and stand ready to minister in a personal way to our churches and people.

"Where the water hits the wheel" in Associational Missions is in our various ministries, where a need is seen- and in love and compassion a person or group of persons meet that need.

A recent example of love and ministry can be seen in the cooperative effort in the Holly Hill Mission. Through the concern of the Association and the churches, partic- ularly seven churches who assisted in the work, the mission has now become a full fledged church and later in this session, will be admitted to membership in our Association. This work is indeed a tribute to Baptist Cooperation.

Another fruitful ministry is the Prison ministry that meets weekly in the Associa- tional office. This ministry grew out of the compassion and concern of several lay- men from our churches. They saw a need to help the men who live in the local prison and set out to minister to their spiritual and social needs. They simply matched needs

31

of men with their own time, love and compassion.

Again, the Youth and Family Service has proven to be a real Christian Service in meeting the needs of young fellows who may have gotten in trouble with the law. Most of the fellows have been set in the right direction; and if so, who can begin to evaluate the worth of such a ministry.

These ministries and others have been dedicated to meeting the personal needs of people. How much more could these ministries have been broadened had each of us seen the needs and responded with our lives. This, after all, is the program of As- sociational Missions.

Some projections should claim our attention. Our present program must be un- dergirded by our increased financial support, our prayers, our talents and abilities if we are to continue to a wider area of service and ministry.

Secondly, the student work at Elon College is showing great promise. With the coming of dedicated and interested Baptists both to the faculty and student body, the work has taken on new dimensions. Here is an area of work that we must explore!

Another Mission endeavor that merits our attention is the work sponsored by the Fairview Church in Hillsborough. This work is located in the Colonial Hills area of Hillsborough and has been supported entirely by Fairview up to this point. However, they will need our prayers and assistance in the Mission work.

In the near future you will receive information about "Extend Now". This is a program to lead us to recognize opportunities that are all around to share Christ with others. This can be done through Missions, Bible study fellowships, discussion fellow- ships, mobile home ministries and others. The only thing it takes to turn opportunity into reality is to see a need and match that need with a person.

Let us in Mt. Zion, respond to our Lord's "GO YE" in the great commission by sharing the Person, Jesus Christ, with people, through people!

Respectfully submitted, H.D. Booth, Chairman Missions Committee

"HE CARES. . . WE CARE"

As I write this first annual Superintendent's report, I find myself reluctant to report things like miles traveled, churches visited, meetings held, etc. I am more inclined to try to define a direction for the future than recite the activities and ac- complishments of the past. We are not ungrateful for God's blessings this year, which have been great, including the constitution of the Holly Hill Chapel as a church, an increased emphasis upon outreach and baptisms and hopeful signs concerning our ministry programs. However, the past is written, it is the present and the future that must now claim our attention.

I see the Association as a vantage point, like the forest ranger's tower, from which we can get an overview of the terrain. Thus a major task of the Association is to be constantly surveying its area, determining needs and communicating these needs to the churches in order that they may be met. The '72-73 Cooperative Program theme, "Committed To Care" is a fitting theme for the program of the Mt. Zion Associa- tion, for we wish to serve on as broad a basis as concern and care dictate.

We plan to encourage Bible teaching, Leadership training, mission study and in- volvement and a more effective use of music, through the existing organizations in the churches. We are truly committed to caring enough about these needs to do the best programming of which we are capable. However, the work of the Association will not be limited to promotion of existing organizations. We will endeavor to remain sensitive to the needs of the area and seek to formulate activities and programs that will meet these needs. Most of these programs and activities will be done in and by the local church, but some will have to undertake by the Association as a whole. The

32

Prison Fellowship will continue to meet and will enlarge as the need demands. Travis Styles, our Youth and Family Service Director has already begun a more intensified enlistment and training program to provide sponsors for young people in trouble. A new spirit on the Elon Campus holds out the prospect of more effective ministry to students. We also plan to provide a summer youth worker to work with smaller churches on a rotating basis next summer.

The fact that a number of churches now have buses has made possible the sched- uling of trips next summer to various mission points in the state and we hope to make this available to all churches.

We are also hopeful of giving some help and direction to churches interested in providing a ministry to senior citizens. It is sinfully wasteful for us not to use these people with their years of experience.

The increasing numbers of people living in mobile home parks makes it necessary for us to continue to investigate ways of reaching these people for Christ and his church.

The establishment of new churches is still a valid way of reaching people for Christ and we plan to keep an eye out for new opportunities to begin missions, churches and Bible Fellowships.

"Committed to Care" must be more than just a theme for this year. It must be the motivation and the goal for the people of the Mt. Zion Association.

Respectfully submitted, Charles L. McMillan, Jr. Superintendent of Missions

REPORT OF YOUTH AND FAMILY

The future of this ministry in our Association is one of the most challenging in applied Christianity that we have ever faced. Our work this year has been a period of getting acquainted with the possibilities of the work, meeting with personnel of the various agencies outside our denomination with which we will work and conferences with individuals who needed help.

Cooperation from the churches is our number one priority for next year in the area of Christians who are willing to become involved individually outside the church.

Foster homes, overnight care for problem cases, "Big Brothers and Big Sisters" who will spend at least one hour per week with a child, churches that will provide scholarships for youngsters to spend a week with their church group at one of our Baptist assemblies and for each church to appoint a Youth and Family Service com- mittee to work with us, are our most pressing needs and our immediate goals for next year. We covet your prayers for the important year ahead.

Respectfully submitted, Travis Styles, Director Youth and Family Services Ministry

EVANGELISM REPORT

1971-72 has been a good year for revivals in the Mt. Zion Association. We had hoped to be able to have a WIN Conference this year, but scheduling has been un- yielding. We are planning one for April '73.

The following is a report of the State Evangelism Department: It is exciting what the Holy Spirit is doing through- the ministry of evangelism in our state. 6,000 youth and adults in 425 churches have now participated in Lay Evangelism Schools or Pastor's Retreats. Forty- two associations already have con-

33

firmed dates for schools. We thank God for this tremendous response to the important emphasis of lay witnessing. This will be a continuing effort in future years.

Over 2,400 pastors and lay persons attended the 26th Statewide Evangelism Con- ference in Fayetteville last February. Special conferences were held with practical emphasis on different phases of evangelism during the first afternoon session. Out- standing speakers challenged pastors to involve their people in the total ministry of evangelism through the church.

Let us rejoice in the excellent reports of revival meetings, city- wide evangelistic crusades and associational evangelism clinics during the past year. It is our hope and prayer that we shall continue to have a strong increase in baptisms this coming year that many more persons may experience Christ by genuine faith and commit- ment.

The 27th Statewide Evangelism Conference will be February 5-7, 1973 at Ovens Auditorium, Charlotte.

Remember to pray earnestly for the leadership of the Holy Spirit in the total ministry of evangelism in North Carolina, our nation and our world.

Respectfully submitted, H.D. Booth, Chairman Ev angelis m Co mmittee

REPORT ON MEMBERSHIP

The Holly Hill Baptist Church made application for membership in the Mt. Zion Association on June 21, 1972. This application was submitted to the Executive Com- mittee at the July meeting, with the request that the Holly Hill Baptist Church be accepted under the watchcare of the Association until the Membership Committee had completed its work on the application. This recommendation was approved.

The application has met all the requirements for membership. Therefore, your Committee respectfully recommends that the Holly Hill Baptist Church be accepted into full membership in the Mt. Zion Baptist Association.

Respectfully submitted,

Ralph E. Jones, Jr.

Chairman of Membership Committee

WHAT DID WE DO IN '72 ? REPORT OF HISTORIAN

What did we do in 72? The historian's limited report cannot possibly answer this question in full. There may be some people who delight in the "good old days" and do not readily adapt to change, but the Mt. Zion Association continues to change as time and need demand.

For instance, shortly after the 1971 annual session, Mr. Frank Ingram, our Superin- tendent of Missions, heard a voice from South Carolina saying, "Come over and help us". Mr. Ingram responded and assumed his responsibilities in the Broad River As- sociation in Gaffney, South Carolina.

The Missions Committee, charged with the task of finding a successor, turned almost immediately to its chairman, Brother Charles McMillan, then the pastor of Kinnett Memorial Baptist Church of Burlington. On M ay 1, 1972, Mr. McMillan assumed the leadership of Baptists in the Mt. Zion Association.

Another change took place with the resignation of Rev. E.J. Barbour, Director of the Youth And Family Service. He moved in January, 1972 to assume Pastoral duties in Virginia. Shortly after, the Missions Committee asked Rev. Travis Styles, pastor

34

of the Grove Park Baptist Church, to serve as interim Director of this ministry.

Change is not only the result of need for replacement; it is characteristic of growth. Early in 1970, a group of Baptists in the Holly Hill section, under the guidance of a properly selected committee, began a new work that became known as the Holly Hill Mission. "As of March 1, 1970," stated Mr. Thomas Hill, "the mission was started with twenty- four members". In September of that same year, the name of the mission was changed to the Holly Hill Baptist Chapel and Dr. Thomas Bland, professor at Southeastern Theological Seminary was called to become interim pastor. By July 1971, there were sixty- three persons definitely aligned with the work. Under the cooperative leadership of Dr. Bland and the associational steering committee, the Holly Hill Baptist Chapel became the Holly Hill Baptist Church on May 21, 1972.

The constitutional service was held in the auditorium of the Marvin B. Smith School where the people had been meeting since the beginning of the mission. Presiding over the first portion of the program was Rev. H.D. Booth, Chairman of the administrative committee. The committee was composed of representatives from the seven co- sponsoring churches, Altamahaw, Burlington First, Hocutt, Northside, Brookwood, Grove Park, Haw River First, along with representatives of the Holly Hill Baptist Church. Mr. John W. Thomas read the resolution constituting the new church and Mr. M.D. Lyall read the statement of purpose. Brother Charles McMillan described the relation- ship of the Holly Hill Baptist work to the Mt. Zion Association and Mr. W.R, Franks recognized the more than ninety charter members. After Mr. W.P. Mann expressed appreciation to the many friends of the Holly Hill Baptist Church for the helping hands which had been extended, Dr. Bland, interim pastor, led the congregation in a reading of the litany of constitution. Mr. Frank Ingram led in the prayer of dedication.

Also participating in this service were Dr. Howard Ford, who delivered the sermon of the afternoon and Mr. Ernest Upchurch, who voiced the invocation. Both of these representatives of the Baptist State Convention had made significant contributions to this work in its earlier stages, serving as preacher for the mission during the first two months of its life.

Mr. James M. Dunn, moderator of the Association, voiced the closing prayer and benediction.

The Holly Hill Baptist Church has given concrete evidence of its depth of convic- tion and strength of faith in the acquisition of a building site at the corner of Edgewood Avenue and the old Greensboro highway here in Burlington. With such proof of progress and principles of faith as set forth in the litany of constitution, the Mt. Zion Baptist Association believes the future of the Holly Hill Baptist Church to be bright, one more channel through which God will pour out His blessings into our community and into His world.

Respectfully submitted, J.H. Waugh, Jr. Historian

REPORT OF RESOLUTIONS COMMITTEE

RESOLVED that the following Three Resolutions be adopted:

1. That we express sincere thanks to the host churches and pastors for the use of their facilities as meeting places and for the Christian hospitality they afforded us.

3. That we dedicate the minutes of this 103rd annual session of the Mount Zion Baptist Association to the late Myrtilla Cheek of Moore's Chapel Baptist Church.

Respectfully submitted, Rev. Ben W. Cox, Chairman 35

REPORT OF TIME, PLACE AND PREACHER COMMITTEE

Respectfully submitted, Dale Steele, Chairman

BAPTIST HOSPITAL REPORT

The distinctiveness or Baptist Hospital's ministry lies not alone in its care for charity patients, but also in the type of service it renders to all its patients, and to many other people throughout our state and nation and around the world.

As an academic Medical Center it is engaged in research and in education, as well as direct patient care. The ministry through research is far-reaching since new dis- coveries in medicine offer new hope to people everywhere. The educational ministry also extends around the world, since graduates of the Bowman Gray School of Medicine serve in 88 counties of North Carolina, in 47 states and the District of Columbia, and in 25 different countries. Alumni of the School of Pastoral Care serve in almost every state and in 39 other countries.

The quality of direct patient care provided at Baptist Hospital is distinct in at least two respects. First, it is a specialized type of medical care, provided for referral patients who have rare or complicated medical problems. Because of the highly- skilled specialists in almost every area of medicine, and the elaborate equipment available for diagnosis and treatment, we are able to provide the kind of care which is available only in a large medical center. Ours is one of only 108 such medical centers in the United States.

In addition to offering this kind of medical expertise, a second distinctive of our patient care is the Christian concern for the total person with all his needs. This spirit is found among physicians, nurses, aides, and other personnel throughout the Center. The Department of Pastoral Care seeks to minister specifically to the spiritual and emotional needs of patients and their families.

Baptist Hospital does continue to serve patients who cannot pay for their hospital care. Even with the tightening of admission policies and procedures, only one person in twelve months - i.e., one in approximately 17,000 applications for admissions - was not helped. In 1971, charitable allowances amounting to $1,370,000 were issued to patients unable to pay in full. The Mother's Day Offering of $371,000 helped make this charity work possible.

The hospital takes pride in its record of charitable work, but would like to help our Baptist people to understand that there are other aspects of its work also which justify its existence as an institution of our Convention and make it worthy of the support of our churches.

The operating deficit has been eliminated and the hospital is now operating "in the black."

The new patient tower is being completed and some departments have already moved into the lower levels. Complete occupation should take place by January, 1973. One additional unit, a two story unit housing the emergency room and outpatient clinic, is scheduled to be completed by 1973. This will conclude the present develop- ment program.

"A Medical Center ministering with skill and understanding" is not just a letter- head slogan; it is a goal which Baptist Hospital seriously strives to attain.

36

CHRISTIAN HIGHER EDUCATION REPORT OUR COMMON GOAL

Together we seek to provide opportunities for students to seek Truth in an at- mosphere of freedom, guided by persons who are committed to God as He is revealed in Jesus Christ. This ideal always exceeds our grasp. However, it is the ever-present goal toward which we strive.- The prayers and active support of North Carolina Baptists are necessary ingredients in helping the actual and the ideal to move more closely together.

COOPERATIVE PROGRAM

The Baptist colleges in North Carolina continue to be grateful for the vital financial support which comes through the Cooperative Program. Outside of student charges, the Cooperative Program is the largest financial source of annual income for our colleges. During the past year these amounts were:

Campbell College $ 311,688 Meredith College 270,322

Chowan College 192, 400 Wake Forest University 467, 532

Gardner-Webb College 213, 564 Wingate College 198, 172

Mars Hill College 270, 322 $1, 924, 000

BAPTIST COLLEGE SCHOLARSHIP OFFERING DAY

One way our churches can help to relieve the financial burden of our schools is through participation in the Baptist College Scholarship Offering Day. Every year many of our churches provide student aid funds for needy North Carolina Baptist students by means of this special offering on Father's Day. Other churches prefer to include this as a regularly budgeted item. We urge more of our churches to enter into this invest- ment in our youth.

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE PAST YEAR

Dr. John E. Weems became the sixth president of Meredith College. He was formerly Vice President for Finance and Administration of Middle Tennessee State University.

Gardner- Webb College received accreditation as a four- year college by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools.

Seventy young men and women from the seven Baptist colleges worked in churches across North Carolina through the Baptist Youth Corps program. Their salaries are paid jointly by the colleges and the churches.

The inclusive enrollment of the seven North Carolina Baptist colleges during the past academic year was 16,609.

RESEARCH TRIANGLE MISSIONS COMMITTEE

The Research Triangle Missions Committee, composed of representatives from Mount Zion, Raleigh and Yates Associations, in co-operation with the Metropolitan Missions Department of Baptist State Convention of North Carolina, set out one year ago to search for a more intimate corporate life in regional goals in mission to meet our changing environment.

The committee entered into dialogue, meeting quarterly, to discuss and evaluate the entire life style of the region we seek to serve. We have come face-to-face with some of the growth trends, community needs in housing, minority empowerment,

37

delinquency prevention and prisoner rehabilitation, interfaith needs and co-operative involvement in meeting these needs.

The group has barely "scratched the surface" in its first year of work. However, we are aware of the tremendous need of teamwork to move us and our respective associations to new awareness of mutual accountability and discipline in the faith.

The committee believes that the regional concept of planning is wise and right. We believe that each association can profit from such mutual teamwork in a planning ministry. At this writing, no earth-shaking decisions have been made by the group. However, we are honestly seeking new ways for more effective ministry in the cause that all of our associations stand for and promote. To some degree, yet of necessity, we have only done exploratory work in the past year. We recommend a continuation of this regional concept ministry by the associations for future work.

An unofficial committee composed of Charles Lemley, George Simmons and Charles McMillan have been meeting with the Research Triangle Missions Committee in order to learn whatever may be of value to the Mt. Zion Association.

BIBLICAL RECORDER

The BIBLICAL RECORDER is nearing the 100,000 mark in circulation - thanks to churches and individuals all over the state who have helped to bring this about. Once this goal is reached, new ones will be set as part of a continuing effort to put the RECORDER in every Baptist home in North Carolina.

Not only in circulation progress, but in other ways this has been a good year for the RECORDER. During the year, WoodrowW. Hill, well-known pastor and writer, came with the RECORDER as field representative. He will be speaking in associations, churches, pastors' conferences and in other meetings all over the state. Thus he will join the editor and associate editor in seeking to carry the RECORDER MESSAGE to every corner of North Carolina.

As it has in the past, the RECORDER seeks to keep North Carolina Baptists in- formed on important issues. This is a heavy responsibility and the editor and his staff feel keenly the need of your prayers as they seek to be good stewards to North Carolina Baptists.

The RECORDER will be 140 years old next January 18. Those responsible for its publication each week recommit themselves to this important ministry of the printed word.

BAPTIST FOUNDATION REPORT

The North Carolina Baptist Foundation, Inc., is a charitable corporation. It was chartered on November 24, 1920, under the laws of the State of North Carolina. As a charitable corporation, it and its donors presently have certain tax savings.

It was created by the Convention for the purpose of procuring endowment funds and for administering such funds, for all institutions and agencies, owned and con- trolled by the Convention. It is independent of the causes it serves, but committed to their best interests. It is not a competitive agency, but a service agency dedicated to the task of undergirding all of our Baptist work.

Any property owner who wishes to do so - Baptist or non-Baptist, resident or non- resident, man or woman, young or old, can use the Baptist Foundation through cash, securities (stocks, bonds, notes, mortgages); real property (farms, woodland, houses, lots); and any and every kind of property, real or personal. These gifts can be in the form of a living trust, gift annuity, or by bequests in wills.

The Baptist Foundation stands ready at all times to aid individuals in making adequate preparation to use of the foregoing methods on providing for any agency or institution fostered by the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina, or any of the

38

Southern Baptist Convention agencies or institutions.

When one uses the Baptist Foundation, one is EXTENDING HIS STEWARDSHIP IN PERPETUITY. This can and does bring a great deal of satisfaction and joy to the per- son who uses the Foundation for this purpose.

If you have any further questions or need a representative to visit you, you may contact the North Carolina Baptist Foundation, Inc., P.O. Box 26508, Raleigh, North Carolina 27611.

1972 ANNUITY REPORT Annuity Board of the Southern Baptist Convention

Darold H. Morgan took office as president of the Annuity Board of the Southern Baptist Convention on March 1, 1972. R. Alton Reed, whom he succeeded, had been chief executive officer of the Board for 19 years.

The change in executive leadership occurred with the Board having record funds held in trust of more than $292 million, as of December 31, 1971. These funds are held in trust for 36,000 retirement plan participants now active in churches and denominational agencies.

Moreover, the Board paid out 25 per cent more in benefits to 7,500 annuitants last year tfyan their contracts required. Called "13th Checks," these extra benefits were paid twice in the year - 8-1/3 per cent in February and another 16-2/3 per cent in December.

The Annuity Board offers a protection plan for disability, death, and retirement to cover every pastor, church staff member, and denominational agency employe. Many churches help by paying in full the dues for their pastor and staff.

Retirement contributions may be made on the full salaries of pastors and other personnel by taking advantage of Plans B and C as well as Plan A. Information on the Annuity Board may be secured by writing its development office, 511 North Akard Building, Dallas, Texas 75201, or by contacting the Annuity Board representative of your Baptist state convention.

Guy S. Cain, Director of the Insurance and Annuity Department will be retiring at the end of this year, at which time Sam O'Neal will become the new Director.

REPORT ON STEWARDSHIP

Southern Baptists continue to make large advances in their mission support program even at a time when many major denominations are cutting back. Cooperative Program receipts at the Southern Baptist Convention level and in many states are well ahead of a year ago. This may well be a record year. The Cooperative Program theme for 1972-73 is "Committed to Care."

COMMITTED TO CARE FOR PEOPLE EVERYWHERE THROUGH THE COOPERATIVE

PROGRAM

I. To help the churches of our Association grow in support of Cooperative Program work we recommend that:

A. Our churches remember the needs of people around the world, keeping in mind the inflationary trends of our economy and plan to increase their contri- butions to missions.

B. Every church observe Cooperative Program Day on the third Sunday in April and Cooperative Program Month during October each year.

C. Contributions through the Cooperative Program be on a percentage basis rather than a fixed dollar figure.

39

II. The Stewardship Commission of the Southern Baptist Convention now offers to churches four church budget subscription program options. A guide has also been prepared to help in the selection of the best of the four programs for each church. In addition, a church may still select and build its own budget subscription pro- gram using stewardship activity guides. The budget subscription program options are:

The Southern Baptist Program of Christian Stewardship

Committed to Tithe

Stewardship Revival

Simplified Church Budget Development and Promotion Two other programs are offered to help meet specialized needs:

Youth in Stewardship

Christian Money Management III. CHURCH FUND RAISING

The raising of funds for church buildings is becoming a tremendous problem to many Southern Baptist churches. Often the congregation is torn as to whether their major emphasis lies in world mission causes or their own local expansion needs.

The Stewardship Commission now offers two ways for a church to overcome this dilemma. Fund raising programs designed to assist the church in raising capital funds and thus avoid long term debts are now available.

The BUILDING FOR TODAY'S CHALLENGE program is a "do-it-yourself pro- gram designed for the smaller church.

The TOGETHER WE BUILD fund raising service is a consultant- led program de- signed to tailor-make a program for the purpose of raising capital funds. To assist in the area of raising capital funds we recommend:

A. That every church anticipating a building program within the next three years study the methods available for raising funds.

B. That every church entering a building program conduct some type of program to raise funds before borrowing the total amount.

C. That the churches needing assistance in fund raising contact the Stewardship Commission, 460 James Robertson Parkway, Nashville, Tennessee 37219, for their advice and counsel.

HISTORICAL SKETCHES OF MT. ZION CHURCHES

Brief histories of Mt. Zion Churches are recorded in the Minutes of the years as herewith listed. The Association Historian suggests that every church in the Associa- tion have copies of the Associational Minutes bound every ten years and keep them in the local church libraries, This will make the Minutes of the years available to all the churches, and those bound volumes will grow more valuable with each passing year.

Although our Association has had Historians almostfromthe date of its organiza- tion still the clerk was not able to find the history of any church recorded in the Min- utes until 1921. Just why the sketches of other years were not recorded in the Minutes is inexplainable.

At the 1874 session of the Association it was decided to elect a Historian annually. The Minutes of 1875 record that "The report of the Historian was adopted and ordered to be recorded in the "Books of Records of the Association." No trace of this book exists. The historical sketches from 1921 are shown in Minutes as follows:

EXECUTIVE BOARD REPORT

The Executive Board of the Mt. Zion Association met quarterly in January, April, July and October of this year.

At the January meeting, Frank Haith of the Altamahaw Church reported on the church's success and blessing in receiving a record Lottie Moon Christmas offering. Two new pastors, Tobie Stone of Kinnett and Roger Aycock of Fairview were presented to the group.

An announcement of One-Night Sunday School Revivals at Grove Park and Hills- borough First was made by Jim Taylor, Associational Sunday School Director.

Mrs. DanSmith, Directorof Associational WMU.gavea fine report of WMU activity during the past quarter and projected several meetings for the new quarter.

Rev. H.D. Booth, chairman of the Missions Committee, presented a proposal for the Association to have six college students to work with the Associational churches for nine and a half weeks during the summer. These students would be selected by the Campus ministry Department of the Baptist State Convention and some training would be given by the Department. Cost of the project was estimated at $4300.00, of which the Baptist State Convention would pay $2500.00, N.C. Baptist Students would contri- bute $800.00 and the Association would provide $1000.00. After some discussion, the project was approved and a committee composed of Charles McMillan, Eddie Love and Phyllis Thomas was selected to plan and supervise the program.

Rev. Charles Jones, chairman of the Committee on Evangelism, recommended that a WIN Pastors' Conference be held the week of April 2-5. The recommendation was approved.

It was reported that the oil tank at the Supt. of Missions Home was leaking and had to be replaced at an approximate cost of $175.00.

The April meeting was opened with a brief devotional by Charles Jones and Howard Silver, new pastor at Northside was introduced.

Reports by the various organizations were given with Jim Taylor, S.S. Director, re- porting that the One- Night S.S. Revivals were very successful. He also announced the Vacation Bible School Clinics to be held at Mebane First, April 30th.

23

Mrs. Smith reported on WMU work and Rev. Charles Jones reported that, ten pastors participated in the WIN Schools. He also reminded the group of the Bob Harrington Cru- sade at Elon in July and urged the churches to support it.

H.D. Booth brought to the Board's attention that no provision had been made for janitorial service at the Associational office. He stated that Otis Day could be em- ployed to do this work for $50.00 a month. It was moved, seconded and passed that Mr. Day should be employed.

H.D. Booth, as chairman of the Missions Committee, presented the Supt. of Mis- sions to explain a mission opportunity.

Rev. McMillan stated that the Baptist Children's Homes was beginning a pilot or pioneer program in short term shelter care for children and our Association had been selected for the pioneer project. The Children's Ho me would provide all operating ex- penses and also the trained personnel to staff the Home that could handle as high as five children at a time. All the Association would be required to do would be to furnish the building. Ralph Jones stated the First Church in Graham had a house which they would furnish but would have to be renovated to meet standards. He stated that their church was already supporting this ministry and suggested that all churches do.

During the discussion that followed, it was brought out that it would probably cost $2,500 to $3,000 for this renovation. Suggestions were made as to how this money would be raised since this was not an item in the budget.

Johnny Greene, finance chairman, stated that since this wasn't a budgeted item, the money could be obtained in two different ways : (1) Give permission to borrow the money and be paid back by the churches in contributions over and above their regular contributions, or (2) ask the churches for finances to meet this need.

Numerous other questions were asked regarding the ministry and of different ways in which the needed money could be raised.

Following the discussion, the motion to proceed with this Ministry was unaimously adopted.

The July meeting began with Rev. Howard Silver leading a devotional period. New pastors, James Chapman of Fellowship, Earl Epperson of Edge wood, Jim Wayne of Holly Hill and Glen Hancock of Glen Raven were presented to the board.

The Supt. of Missions reported that the house the Association had hoped to use for the Shelter Care facility was unsuitable and that the Association was looking for other possibilities.

Reports of the officers, organizations and committees were given.

Rev. Travis Styles, part-time Director of the Youth and Family Service gave a very challenging report and made a plea for the churches to get more involved in this min- istry.

Mrs. Dan Smith gave an excellent report on WMU work and moderator Paul Craig emphasized the State Mission offering for the CaRAway Conference Center.

Two members of the Apostoloi team, Marian Osborne and Brenda Taylor, were in- troduced and shared with the group something of the team's work.

The October meeting was opened with scripture and comments by Jim Wayne, pas- tor of Holly Hill Baptist Church.

The Moderator announced appointments to the four committees as listed on page 5 of this report, organizational reports were presented and the proposed budget was pre- sented and approved by the Executive Board.

Two recommendations came from the Missions Committee; (1) that the Associa- tion employ three college students to conduct a summer ministry in 1974 similar to the Apostoloi Team ministry, working for nine weeks at a salary of $500 each with $500 to be used for the team's expense budget. (2) That the Association proceed with the Shelter Care Program, budgeting $1800 for one year's rental of the facility which will care for up to nine children. An additional $4200 will be needed for renovation.

The Membership Committee stated that the Mt. Zion Baptist Church had applied for membership in the Mt. Zion Association and would be voted on in the Annual Ses- sion.

24

Significant programs have been undertaken and in some cases carried through this year. We are grateful for each church's cooperation in making this possible.

Respectfully submitted, Paul J. Craig, Moderator Freeman O. Cooper, Clerk

SUNDAY SCHOOL REPORT

1973 seems to have been another good year for the association in Sunday School activity. Many of our churches have met their goals in the "Together We Advance" program for this year and we are looking forward to greater things for the future.

Surely all of us are aware of the "Together We Advance" program and its aim to help us reach a goal of atleasta lOP/o increase in various phases of our church minis- try. It is a program worthy of the careful consideration of each church in the associa- tion.

Perhaps it is because of the added emphases of "Together We Advance" urging a 10°/o increase in Sunday School enrolment and Bible Study that our Home Mission Board reported in August that Sunday Schools were holding their own in enrolment for the first time in ten years. Whatever the reason, let us give God the praise for this.

It would certainly be necessary to give thanks for those who made our "One-Night Sunday School Revivals" so inspiring. We had 600+ in attendance at Grove Park in Burlington and 99 at the First Baptist Church in Hillsborough. There were 473 people who made commitments and turned in cards. Thirty- three of thirty- seven churches of the association were represented.

In the area of Vacation Bible Schools, we have reports from 24 churches showing a total enrolment of 2,287 people and a total mission offering of $755.45.

Of the 24 churches reporting, two report VBS for ADULTS, with Hocutt having 32 and Glencoe 8. We are aware that some other churches had VBS for ADULTS but we do not have the reports at this time.

Now, as we face the new year let us strive even more strenuously to meet the goals established and provide a meaningful learning experience for those we enlist in our Christ Centered efforts.

Respectfully submitted,

J. A. Taylor,

Sunday School Director

CHURCH TRAINING REPORT

"CHURCH - THE SUNDAY NIGHT PLACE TO BE" is the current emphasis in Church Training. Chances for Christian growth are lessened when we fail to use the Sunday night training opportunities.

Materials and resources for every possible training need are available.

MEMBER TRAINING - the PLACE to "bone up" on extra Bible Study, Christian ethics, Church polity or even Mission opportunities.

LEADER TRAINING - the PLACE to equip every church officer, teacher, leader, dea- con or committee member to do a better job.

NEW MEMBER TRAINING - the PLACE for every new church member, for each one deserves the most careful attention and the best possible orientation to church life. New materials, including workbooks for each age group are available.

May each of us make an effort to make our OWN church "THE SUNDAY NIGHT PLACE TO BE."

Respectfully submitted, Reu Hudson, Director

REPORT OF WOMAN'S MISSIONARY UNION

1972-73

Mt. Zion Woman's Missionary Union has endeavoured to go forward this year by taking a GIANT STEP. We were challenged to increase by 25% our total membership, our age- level organizations, and our subscriptions to age- level magazines.

In October, 1972 we helped start a Baptist Women organization at Glen Raven Bap- tist Church. Earlier they had elected a W.M.U. Director and twelve women came for their organizational meeting.

On Saturday, October 21, 1972, we held a Prayer Retreat at Bethel Baptist Church. Mrs. Walker Martin led the Bible Study for the 48 attending from 13 churches and we felt a tremendous filling of the Holy Spirit.

Baptist Women attempted for the first time to have an Associational Baptist Wo- men's Day of Prayer on November 6, 1972 at Haw River, First. Only five churches par- ticipated as our planning was a little late and many local churches had already made their plans. However, 25 women came and our offering of $18.66 was taken to aid the work of the Continental Unions of the Women's Department of the Baptist World Al- liance. This is a very meaningful and important offering because many countries are so very poor, and they look to the women of the Southern Baptist Convention to give a worthy offering to help with this mission work around the world.

On February 13, 1973 our Acteens held a banquet at Mebane, First with 130 in at- tendance from 12 churches. Miss Jolene Ivey, state Acteens Director, was the guest speaker.

On March 10, 1973 Mrs. Booth, Baptist Women Director, and I visited with Altama- haw W.M.U. There were 17 ladies and 1 Girls- In- Action present for this meeting.

On March 14-15, 1973 our state W.M.U. Convention was held in Raleigh at War Memorial Auditorium, and we had quite a large number attending from Mt. Zion Asso- ciation. Our association was recognized for being "Distinquished" in W.M.U. work for the past year, as well as each individu al church in their achievement. Mrs. Carlton Prickett was installed to serve on the Personnel Committee of the State W.M.U Execu- tive Board, and Mrs. Edward B. Luke is already serving a three year term on this Board.

Our own Annual Meeting was held March 20, 1973 at Hocutt Memorial with approxi- mately 288 in attendance from 33 churches. We heard Miss Jolene Ivey from our state office talk about our Heck- Jones Offering for 1973 and also "Giant Step," our Enlist- ment Promotion. Dianne Keck, one ofourMt. Zion girls thrilled our hearts as she told of her call into special service for Christ as a Missionary Journeyman to Japan. The meeting finally was climaxed with a message by Mrs. J.G. Goodwin, Jr. from Korea, wife of our own Rev. J.G. Goodwin, Jr. from Hillsborough.

We had another Associational Prayer Retreat on Saturday, May 5, 1973, at Cross Roads Baptist Church. There were 46 present from 16 churches. Mrs. Homer Andrews from Burlington, First led the Bible study which was a very enriching experience. Miss Vicki Estes, New Hope Baptist Church, warmed our hearts as she gave her testimony and told how she was being led to go as a Missionary Journeyman to Hong Kong.

Two girls from Norths ide, Betty Anne Mincey and Deborah Duncan, served as Counselors at Camp Mundo Vista this past summer.

Our Acteens met on July 22, 1973 at Burlington, First. Attendance was very small for this age group as only 32 were present from 5 churches. Miss Gloria Grogan, a former US-2 worker and presently studying for missionary service at Southern Semi- nary, spoke to the girls about her mission call and showed slides of her work with Cubans and Puerto Ricans at a mission in Chicago, during her two years as a US-2er.

Baptist Young Women met on August 7 at Glen Hope Fellowship Hall. Their attend- ance also was small having only 15 present from 4 churches. Judy Smith and Rochelle Berry from Glen Hope showed slides and told of their recent week spent in Haiti doing evangelistic work.

26

Our Girls- In- Action met on August 7 at Riverside Baptist Fellowship Hall. Rev. Ronald Rice, Associate Pastor of First Baptist Church, Winston-Salem, spoke to this group. He has worked at their mission and now is in charge of their Crisis Control Center at the mission. There were 85 in attendance from 6 churches.

During Southwide W.M.U. week at Ridgecrest August 9-15, 16 women from 7 of our churches were able to attend part of the Conference. I am sure their lives were greatly enriched as well as the churches from which they came. Why don't you suggest that your church include the W.M.U. conference in your budget for next year?

Your Associational W.M.U. Director and Age- Level Directors attended the Workshop at Camp Mundo Vista August 31- September 1 and September 7-8, in preparation for the new year.

Leadership Training through age- level manual studies was provided on September 25 at Northside and October 11 at Mebane, First.

We measure W.M.U. work by an Achievement Guide. We commend the following W.M.U. organizations for their work in 1971-72 as 1972-73 reports are not yet avail- able.

BROTHERHOOD REPORT

Baptist Men's work has had its problems for the last several years around the con- vention but new signs of life are flickering in churches and in our convention organiza- tions, as men's groups involve themselves in mission projects and mission study groups.

In Mt. Zion, the Brotherhood Department sponsored a very successful Pastor- Deacon Retreat at Camp CaRAway last November. Another has been scheduled for November 2 & 3 of this year at the Hocutt Memorial Baptist Church.

The Associational Brotherhood Director has also prepared three slide and tape pro- grams which can be used by the Brotherhood, W.M.U., worship service, prayer meeting or any church group.

PROGRAM 1. "JEHOVAH WITNESSES" Color slides and tape recording depicting and discussing the history and theology of the Witnesses with a verse by verse study and refutation of their teachings. Each group using the study receives an outline of the

29

history and verses used. The program concludes with a plan for reaching the Witnesses for Christ.

PROGRAM 2. "LET US VISIT .. YANCEYVILLE HOME FOR THE AGING" - Color slides and tape recording telling a history of the Homes for the Aging in N.C., showing the Home and a short history of each. Then via tape and slides, you visit the Home at Yanceyville and interview four happy members of the home.

PROGRAM 3. "CITIZENSHIP AND PATRIOTISM" - Color slides and tape recording with beautiful pictures of Washington, D.C.; great moments from history as we view the great sacrifice of so many that have done so much to make America what it is! The conclusion of the program is unique as the way to peace is shown.

These programs are available at the Associational office. Over 200 hours and a great deal of money has gone into the preparation and it is the hope of the Director that they will be used.

Respectfully submitted, Rev. John B. Ray, Director

SHARE THE WORD NOW Missions Committee Report

"SHARE THE WORD NOW" has been our Southern Baptist Convention theme this year and a more appropriate theme could hardly be found. Our great land of plenty is in the midst of a famine - a famine of righteousness, a famine of purity, a famine of hope, a famine of purpose - a famine of God's word. Those who have been blessed with God's word have an obligation to share it! In the Mt. Zion Association, we have sought to share God's word during 1973.

We have sought to share His reconciling word through the establishment of new churches, for the church is still our best method for confronting people with Christ's claims. The Holly Hill Church called its first pastor, James Wayne, during the year and the Fairview Baptist Church has established the Colonial Hills Mission just off 185 at Hillsborough. The North Graham Mission, sponsored by Graham First, is rapidly moving toward church status under the capable leadership of Rev. Glen Cox. The Co- lonial Hills fellowship is the newest of the new work and they will need our prayerful support in the coming months.

We have sought to share God's revealing word through the efforts like that of the Apostoloi Team. This team of six fine young people met with 18 of our churches in their nine and one-half weeks in our association. In various ways they tried to help others discover God's will for their lives. The response to their ministry was great and there has been considerable indication that some youth program should be under- taken next summer.

We are seeking to share His redeeming word through a ministry to dependent, neg- lected, abused and pre- delinquent young people. It has been the committee's hope to begin the operation of a family- like home to take care of children and youth in need of temporary shelter and care. The Baptist Children's Homes of N.C. are willing to share in this ministry with us by providing a trained professional staff and assuming all operation costs estimated at about $16,000.00. The Association's part would be providing a facility such as a renovated home and furnish it. Presently, we are looking at various facilities and trying to determine the cost of renovation. Space does not per- mit the telling of the need for such a facility but this will be discussed in the oral part of the committee's report.

Respectfully submitted, H.D. Booth, Chairman Associational Missions Committee

HOMES FOR THE AGING REPORT

One of the most meaningful things that you do as a Baptist is share in the ministry of your North Carolina Baptist Homes for the Aging. As you look back with us on the twenty two years of this ministry, the last year in particular, there are distinctive blessings that we would call to your heart and mind.

There is no greater awareness than that this special ministry to older people is a venture of faith in God. God has brought us from one Home to five resident Homes. Two are located in Winston-Salem (Resthaven and the Hayes Home), and one each in Albemarle, Hamilton, and Yanceyville. These Homes have a capacity of 162 resi- dents. There is a nursing care unit in Wins ton- Salem, capacity 63, which serves all the Homes' residents when nursing care is needed.

Four out of five persons who come to our Homes are persons with very limited in- come. They look to you, through your love gifts, for a supplement to their care.

This is YOUR ministry to older persons who simply could not be ministered to without your gifts. During the past year, you contributed $185.00 a month for the care of the majority of the residents in your five Baptist Homes. Through the Special Offering, you contributed 20<7o of the total income of the Homes, and through the Co- operative Program, you gave 10% of the total budget needed.

The tie that binds this ministry to the hearts of our Baptist people is a very special and distinctive one indeed.

Respectfully submitted,

Mrs. Doris Thompson,

Homes for the Aging Representative

NORTH CAROLINA BAPTIST HOSPITAL REPORT

In May of this year, Baptist Hospital observed its 50th Anniversary. The hospital opened its doors on May of 1923 "to bring the healing art more definitely under the dominion of the Great Healer."

The anniversary was celebrated jointly with the dedication of the new Reynolds Tower, a 16 story patient care facility. The completion of the Tower brings the total bed capacity to 655, placing Baptist Hospital within the top 10 per cent (in size) among hospitals in the United States. When the renovation of older sections of the hospital is completed, the total number of beds will be 717.

Construction has begun on an ambulatory care building which will house the emer- gency room, several outpatient clinics, the Physical Therapy Department and the On- cology (Cancer) Clinic and Research Laboratories. This building and the above-men- tioned renovation will complete the present Medical Center Development Program.

Last November, the Baptist State Convention heard the report of the Committee of 15 and adopted its recommendations. The hospital has been seeking to implement these recommendations:

1. A Medical Center Committee, composed of 8 Trustees from the Baptist Hospital Board and 8 from the Wake Forest University Board, has been appointed. This commit- tee will consider matters involving the Medical Center and its future.

2. In January, the hospital trustees appointed a committee of three to review ap- propriations from the Mother's Day fund and assist hospital personnel in making de- cisions on some specific requests for assistance. The hospital continues to provide care for people who cannot pay, valued at far in excess of the total Mother's Day Of- fering. The auditors' confirmed value of this care in 1972 was $1,390,000 - nearly four times the amount of the Mother's Day Offering and this does not include the value of physicians' service, provided without cost to these service patients.

3. The Department of Pastoral Care is expanding its services to provide training for lay people. Dr. Mahan Siler joined the staff June 1 to head up this new work. The

31

Department also anticipates the establishment of several satellite counseling and training centers in the state, beginning in the near future. Your cooperative Program gifts support the work of this department.

The hospital's financial operation is "in the black/' and there has not been a gen- eral room rate increase in 2 1/2 years. As of this date, the Mother's Day Offerings are running ahead of last year.

Respectfully submitted,

Miss Phyllis Thomas,

Baptist Hospital Representative

EVANGELISM REPORT

"SHARING CHRIST NOW" was the theme of the 27th Statewide Evangelism Con- ference at Ovens Auditorium, Charlotte - February 5-7, 1973. Over2,400 pastors and lay persons were challenged by outstanding speakers to lead their people to become more involved in the work of evangelism. The closing session on Wednesday, February 7, was held at Pritchard Memorial Church, with an emphasis on prayer and personal renewal.

One hundred and fifty denominations are sharing in the KEY 73 evangelistic effort. The purpose of KEY 73 is to unite all Christians in the task of evangelism and to en- able Christians to confront every person in the United States and Canada with the Gos- pel of Christ.

It is thrilling what the Holy Spirit is doing through the ministry of our first summer youth evangelism team. Three college students - Steve Stout, Cooleemee, Terry Crouse, Lenoir and Christy Farrior, Williamston, are leading in music, preaching in youth revivals and directing youth witness training sessions in churches from Marshall to Washington.

During June 11-15 over 730 youth and adults were present for the Youth Ministries Week at the North Carolina Baptist Assembly, with the emphasis on Evangelism, Vo- cational Guidance and Recreation. Eighty-one youth made various decisions, including sixteen professions of faith.

Over 16,000 youth, pastors and adult leaders attended the 3rd Statewide Youth Evangelism Night at Greensboro Coliseum on August 17. It is exciting how God is using the witness of thousands of Christian youth across our state in a tremendous manner.

The response of youth and adults to Lay Evangelism Schools in the past twenty months has been outstanding. 9,564 youth and adults have participated in this lay witness training from 720 churches and 34 associations. Also, 107 pastors from nine associations shared in a Pastor's Retreat to learn how to lead their churches in Lay Evangelism Schools.

THE 28TH STATEWIDE EVANGELISM CONFERENCE WILL BE AT WAR MEMORIAL AUDITORIUM, GREENSBORO, DURING FEBRUARY 4-6, 1974.

Within the Mt. Zion Association, this has been a year of active ministry in Evan- gelism. On April 5th a WIN Conference was conducted for Mt. Zion Pastors with Rev. Jimmy Hinson of the Department of Evangelism leading. A number of pastors and some laymen from our churches participated in the conference to familiarize them- selves with the WIN materials, which have exciting possibilities for the local church ministry of outreach through personal evangelism.

The ministry of the APOSTOLOI TEAM in our churches during the summer of 1973 was a great blessing. These college students conducted Vacation Bible Schools, Youth Week Programs, Retreats and week-end revivals in many of our churches. Reports from churches in which the team shared their ministry indicate an enduring contribution to the spiritual awareness and growth of our young people.

32

During the first week in July, some of our churches participated in the Bob Harring- ton Burlington Area Crusade which was held in the Elon College Gym. Many people were saved during the week and hundreds of other decisions were made. Many of our churches also participated in the Billy Graham Crusade in Raleigh.

Evangelism is at the very heart of the Christian mission. For all of God's bless- ings in the past, we give Him the glory. Rejoicing in past blessings, let us go for- ward in the task of "discipling" the world IN HIS NAME.

Yours in Christ,

Rev. Charles Jones, Chairman

MEMBERSHIP COMMITTEE REPORT

The Membership Committee of the Mt. Zion Baptist Association has considered the request by the Mt. Zion Baptist Church to become a member of our association and has acted in the affirmative. Therefore, we recommend that the Mt. Zion Church be admitted as a part of our associational fellowship.

Respectively submitted, W.T. Cockman, Chairman Associational Membership Committee

MISSIONS TO SEE IN '73 (Report of Historian, Mt. Zion Baptist Association, 1973)

We are hearing much these days of pilot programs, all of which are not government sponsored. In cooperation with the Baptist Children's Homes of North Carolina, the Mt. Zion Baptist Association is one of the three associations in the state planning pilot programs of child care. Those who work with children who are dependent or neglected have recognized a need to provide short-term emergency care for them. There are children who cannot remain at home because of the illness of both parents. In some unfortunate situations, neither parents or relatives can or will meet the needs of the children. Now and then a behavioral problem arises so that, in order to stay off an actual run-in with the law, special attention is needed. Such children need a place to go for a brief period of time - maybe just overnight, or maybe for thirty days - while thorough investigation is being made for the best possible disposition of the child's case.

On April 9, 1973, meeting at the First Baptist Church of Graham, the Executive Committee of the Mt. Zion Baptist Association decided to implement such a ministry and authorized the Missions Committee to proceed with their plans to work with the Baptist Children's Homes in providing such a facility. The Association would provide the house, renovate it and equip it for such a ministry. The Baptist Children's Homes would furnish the personnel and operating costs. A Director has been employed and is presently working at the Home in Thomasville. At the time of this writing, the Asso- ciation has not settled on a house, but officials are looking at one which they hope to be adequate and can be secured so that the program can be actually launched by 1974. At that time, the director, a highly qualified young lady with her masters' degree in social work, and her husband will move into the new facility to become house-parents of from one to nine young, short-term residents. Some of these children will, of course, go back to theirown homes; others will be placed in a more permanent child-care cen- ter such as the Baptist Children's Home. Our ministry as an Association is simply to provide the child with short-term care while interested persons make the decision that will give that child the very best advantages in days ahead.

Our concern this yearhas not been entirely the children or with reference to institu- tional life, for theMt. Zion Association has been concerned with people. Just after the close of schools last June, the Apostoloi team, supported jointly by the Association and the Baptist State Convention, came to work with us. Living in a dormitory at Elon College, the six young people worked in various churches in the Association. The week of July 23-27 was spent in the Colonial Hills section of Hillsborough where the Fair- view Baptist Church had afforded land and had, with the help of at least one donor, erected a building. As far back as seven years ago, the people of the Fairview church had called the attention of the Association to a need for mission work in that com- munity. Vacation Bible Schools and special work with the young have followed that summons. Last year, under the leadershipof As sociational officers, a thorough survey of the area was made. The Mission idea has been growing all these years. Thus, when the Apostoloi team met with the youngpeopleof the Colonial Hills area, visited each afternoon and held services each evening, the idea got enough momentum to result in the commitment of twenty- two persons to the Colonial Hills Baptist Mission. On July 29, Sunday morning and evening services were begun. Through the last Sunday in Au- gust, there had been an average attendance of thirty- two persons per service. Offerings had. amounted to approximately one hundred and fifty dollars per Sunday. Our Superin- tendent of Missions, Brother Charles McMillan, has been preaching there when possi- ble. At other times, a student from Southeastern Seminary has been on hand. It would seem that the Mt. Zion Association is birthing a new church.

REPORT OF YOUTH AND FAMILY SERVICES MINISTRY

This past year has seen an increased activity in the number of persons who have expressed a need for help in the area of drug abuse. Our area of the most activity has been along this line. This ministry has been accepted to a greater extent outside of our churches (police, courts and agencies) than ever before. All of these are now making referrals more frequently.

Needs that are pressing now include the following:

1. Each church is urged to setup a committee, or at least one person that would be a point of contact between that church and the director.

2. Each church is asked to include some of the youth in trouble in their camps and assemblies. The director can supply the names to any interested church.

3. We would encourage churches to ask the director to speak to churches and church groups concerning the needs of this ministry.

4. Our most pressing need, but seemingly impossible at this time, is to set up a program and to call a "full time director" into our association.

Respectfully submitted, Rev. Travis Styles, Director

"IT'S WORKING"

"THANKS TO YOU - IT'S WORKING," is the slogan of some United Fund Organi- zations. It is also a good way to describe what I feel about this past year of Associa- tion al work.

After my first full year as Superintendent of Miss ions, I am convinced that Baptist cooperative work is a modern miracle! To be able to support and operate the mis- sionary enterprises and institutions that we do on the vague and nebulous cable of voluntary effort is sheer miracle. Those of us within the organization are painfully

34

aware of the problems and difficulties - so much so, that we are often blinded to the achievements and accomplishments which are daily products of this cooperation.

I recently listened to a high ranking officer in the Federal Health, Education and Welfare Department, as he described in amazed tones the effectiveness of one of our institutions. I began to realize anew the values of our work. Sometimes, it takes an outsider to help us remove our blindfolds.

The principle of cooperative action has its difficulties in that individuals and churches must be motivated, enlisted and organized into various activities. But once the machinery is in motion, great values are derived as the talents of individuals, their vision, creativity and ability are utilized.

To propose a program or activity and to see it enlarged, improved and implemented as others get involved, has to be one of life's most satisfying experiences. That is why I want to thank you for letting me be your Superintendent or Missions.

We have seen formidable tasks tackled together and done with ease. We have watched barriers dissipate as people have joined together in a single purpose. Your awareness of and interest in needs beyond those of the local church has made our job much easier. THANKS TO YOU, THE MIRACLE OF BAPTIST COOPERATIVE MINISTRY IS WORKING!

No sensible person would ever try to curb the individual diversity of Baptists, for it is this diversity of thought and method that has provided the creative and success- ful programs of today. However, it is not accidental that the first disciples received spiritual power when they were "of one accord." Nor is it accidental that one of the major themes of the New Testament is church unity or unity of the Christian fellow- ship. If unity is, as I suspect it to be, one of the pre- requisites of God's empowering, then it behooves us to seek ways of working together to do His will. This will again be our goal in the new year. The complexities of society, the constant change and the utter chaos of each person doing his own thing, demands something beyond human re- sources. We need the dimension of the divine in our lives and efforts.

It is my prayer that you will join me in trying to do together what we cannot do apart.

Respectfully submitted Yours in Christ, Charles L McMillan, Jr., Superintendent of Missions

CHRISTIAN ACTION LEAGUE (Report to the Association)

The Christian Action League is actively engaged in an all-out campaign to defeat the referendum in a vote against liquor-by- the-drink on November 6, 1973, The plan of action is to organize a local county chapter in each of the 100 counties of the state. A multi- media advertising campaign costing $250,000 is being projected to cover the State with the truth about what liquor-by- the- drink will do in North Carolina. All this is aimed at getting the people to the polls on November 6. Complacency on the part of dry supporters could be the biggest danger that is faced in this campaign. Dr. Charles Petty, who has recently moved to Raleigh from Texas and who is the Director of the Christian Life Council of the Baptist State Convention, had this to say about "The Texas Story:"

"In 1970, Texas approved liquor-by- the- drink sales. The vote was 52°/o for and 48% against.

The irony was that the "drys" won 203 counties while the "wets" won only 51 counties .

The "drys" lost for two basic reasons. The first was they didn't work very hard.

35

Those in urban areas said, "We can't win, so why work?" Thus, they didn't work and the urban areas were lost by wide margins.

Those in rural areas said, "We can't lose, so why work?" Thus, they didn't and the rural areas were won by narrow margins. Unfortunately, the large urban losses off- set the small rural victories which resulted in a statewide defeat of the "drys" (979, 868 for and 914,481 against).

The second reason for the defeat was an economic one. To tell the story takes money. The "wets" had it, the "drys" did not. Thus, a one sided story was told and Texans believed what they were told. "Drys" must remember that every vote counts and every voter must be told the truth. "Go quickly and tell."

As concerned Christian citizens, we can do several things:

1. Pray for the success of this campaign and for all of those who are involved in its promotion.

2. Help the local unit of the Christian Action League in your county in its efforts to inform the people, alert the citizens and get the dry vote out on November 6.

3. Give of your financial resources, of your time and talents in this most vital vote for the welfare of our State.

BAPTIST CHILDREN'S HOMES

OF

NORTH CAROLINA

Christian child care is a creative opportunity. The Baptist Children's Homes of North Carolina is committed to quality care which nurtures the whole person, physi- cally, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. It is our hope that each child in our care will have the opportunity to develop the full potential which is his by God's creation.

This has been a year of development and constructive change for the Homes. The entire agency has voluntarily met the minimum standards for child caring agencies and has been liscensed by the State of North Carolina for all of our services to children and their families.

Each of the three administrative areas has realized significant growth. In the West- ern Area, two additional cottages have been completed and occupied at Broyhill Home and construction has begun on the administration building and the recreation building. The Maternity Home continues to operate at or near the capacity in its services to un- wed mothers. In the Eastern Area, a new cottage is being built at Kennedy Home and the Foster Care program has been enlarged.

In the Piedmont Area, three developments deserve special attention. (1) Mills Home has a new administrative organization. The twenty cottages have been divided into four units of five each and each unit will have a unit director, two social workers and the cottage personnel. These smaller units will provide closer working relation- ships between staff members, between staff and children and between staff and fam- ilies. (2) Wall Home at Wallburg has been reopened to provide for a group of boys, utilizing the special skills of the houseparents in an outdoor adventure program. (3) We are negotiating with Baptists in Alamance and Mecklenburg counties for the establish- ment of emergency care units. These units will be joint ventures between the Homes and the local supporters, with the local group providing the buildings and the Homes operating the program of care.

Three pressing needs are laid on the hearts of Baptists who are concerned for our ministry of Christian child care. (1) We need families who will open their homes to

36

accept foster children. Any family interested in exploring this Christian service to children should write or call the nearest office of the Baptist Children's Homes. (2) The increase in the cost of food, clothing, supplies and services makes the Coopera- tive Program and the Thanksgiving Offering all the more important to our continuing services. We need significant increases in both to meet rising costs. (3) Several old cottages remain which need to be replaced with new cottages better suited to present patterns of child care. The development staff welcomes the opportunity to counsel any person regarding his lasting investment in Christian child care.

CHRISTIAN HIGHER EDUCATION REPORT CHURCHES AND COLLEGES WORKING TOGETHER

In North Carolina, Baptist Churches and Baptist Colleges enjoy a supportive part- nership. It is still true that most of our pastors, missionaries, church staff members and denominational leaders are educated in Baptist Colleges. Another outstanding ex- ample of church- college cooperation is the Baptist Youth Corps, which provided dedi- cated leadership for more than eighty North Carolina Baptist Churches during the sum- mer of 1973. On Campus, the college presidents interpret to the faculty and staff that our churches and colleges play important, complementary roles in the Christian mis- sionary enterprise.

COOPERATIVE PROGRAM

Your North Carolina Baptist colleges continue to be grateful for the support which comes through the Cooperative Program. During 1973, more than two million dollars will be given to support Christian higher education. Your colleges share this support as follows:

Campbell College $ 340,721

Chowan College 212,951

Gardner- Webb 249,153

Mars Hill College 296,002

Meredith College 296,002

Wake Forest University 517,471

Wingate College 217,210

$ 2,129,510

THE IMPORTANCE OF BAPTIST STUDENTS

The colleges make a special effort to recruit North Carolina Baptist students. In fact, no qualified student is turned down in any of our colleges because of inability to pay. The churches help to make this possible through the Cooperative Program and the Baptist College Scholarship Offering on Father's Day. Baptist colleges stress the importance of the individual student, and are anxious to enroll the youth from our churches who plan to attend college. Churches can help their students and their col- leges by encouraging interested young people to apply for enrolment in one of the seven North Carolina Baptist colleges.

37

COUNCIL ON CHRISTIAN HIGHER EDUCATION

Since 1945, the cooperative efforts and relationships of North Carolina Baptist Col- leges have been coordinated by the Council on Christian Higher Education of the Bap- tist State Convention. The Council office is eager to assist both the churches and the colleges as together they help to create persons and a world as Christ would have them.

DEPARTMENT OF CAMPUS MINISTRY

We have focused, during the school year 1972- 73, on Christian growth, development of a Christian life style, and the strengthening of churchmanship among students on the 30 campuses in North Carolina where Baptist Student Union groups are active.

In addition to local BSU programs, which range in complexity from the fullest in- volvement possible in a student center to twice- a- month meetings around the table of a cafeteria, the Department is committed to providing summer service opportuni- ties for students, projecting a variety of state programs in collaboration with student leaders, and working with church leaders of college students.

Baptist chaplains seek to be effective ministers of the gospel on campuses as well as advisers for student groups. Worship, evangelism, discussion groups, out- reach teams and retreats are important dimensions of our ministry as we seek to build fellowship centered in commitment to Christian faith and move onto the campus as agents of His love.

We have two requests: First, work at getting to know us in order that you can more realistically support your ministry through prayer and constructive discussion of our joint tasks. Second, give us a chance to share with you and learn from you in your church or association by inviting us (or groups of students from the campus nearest you) to participate in a worship service, class meeting or special event. The depart- ment isourdenomination'sonlychannelforworkon the state and non-Baptist campus- es in North Carolina. Prayforus and the churches located near these centers of educa- tion.

"DYING TO LIVE" (COOPERATIVE PROGRAM REPORT)

Cooperative Program money is some of your life and the lives of others joining in a mighty cause to die that others may have abundant life.

When you give your salary for four hours of work to your church, you give four hours of your life. As your church shares the tithes and offerings you gave through the Co- operative Program, some of your life goes around the world that others may have life.

From full hearts and dedicated lives come Cooperative Program dollars - coming from eggs sold, from a day's labor in a mill, from great fortunes, from drug stores, from filling stations, from fields, factories and mines in order to bring people to God. Through your dedicated Cooperative Program money, your life becomes a part of the great hope for God's will being done on this earth.

Last year, 1,138 churches increased Cooperative Program giving by 10% or more over what they gave the previous year. Four of the associations in North Carolina had 100% of their churches giving through the Cooperative Program in 1972. These four associations were: Anson, Flat River, Tar River and Yates.

38

Will you do four things?

1. Will you lead the church where you serve to increase Cooperative Program and associational mission giving by 10% or more?

2. Will you have a special prayer for your missionaries and other Cooperative Pro- gram causes during each service in your church during the October Program prayer month?

3. Will you send your check for Cooperative Program each month to Baptist State Convention of North Carolina, P.O. Box 26508, Raleigh, N.C. 27611?

4. Will you helpus have a good STEWARDS HIP WORKSHOP in your association next spring or summer, so we can: (1) Study recommendations for pastor and staff salary increases; (2) Get an overview of available program helps for each church in steward- ship; and (3) Receive a report on where you are in your goals for associational and Co- operative Program giving?

BIBLICAL RECORDER REPORT

This has been another good year for the BIBLICAL RECORDER, thanks to your sup- port and confidence. One of the milestones reached in the past year was passing the 100,000 mark in circulation. This occurred in May and circulation has now risen to nearly 106,000 - the highest in the 140 year history of the RECORDER. This has been achieved largely because more churches are putting the RECORDER in the budget, thus saving money and also time and effort that is put forth each year to renew their sub- scriptions under the Club Plan of four or more.

All of these things are encouraging to those getting out the RECORDER each week. They feel their obligation to North Carolina Baptists is to get out the finest paper possible - one that is attractive and filled with interesting and helpful material. In addition, news coverage of meetings such as the Committee of 11 is needed if North Carolina Baptists are to settle this issue which has come up in the last two state conventions. Associate Editor Toby Druin has covered every meeting of this committee which is studying the baptism issue in our state. The RECORDER will carry the full report of this committee 60 days before the convention meets in Greens- boro. The RECORDER'S coverage of these important meetings will do much to help messengers arrive at the right decision in November. This is the Baptist way - full information which comes with freedom of the press.

Those of you who don't get the RECORDER should subscribe immediately, either by putting the RECORDER in your budget for only $2.50 a year or by starting a club of four or more for only $3.00 a year. Where else can you get so much for so little?

Respectfully submitted, J. Marse Grant, Editor BIBLICAL RECORDER

ANNUITY BOARD REPORT

The June '73 report indicates that 29 of 37 churches in the Mt. Zion Association participate in the Annuity program. Most of these churches participate in Plan A of the retirement program which provides for a yearly premium from the church or pastor of $400.00. The Convention adds to this amount another $200.00 annually so that most pastors and religious workers will receive between $3000 and $4000 per year at age 65.

Many churches do not realize that additional retirement funds can be provided by participating in plans B or C of the retirement program.

Plan B allows for additional amounts to be added to the retirement and these funds draw interest much as a savings account. Plan C allows for the investment of addi- tional funds in stocks and bonds and is increased by the dividends on the stocks and

39

bonds. A church or pastor may increase the pastor's annual retirement income by put- ting more money in plan B or C.

The Annuity Board also provides Life and Accident insurance on group rates. If a pastor or church employee participates in the life and accident insurance, he or she is also able to purchase hospitalization or medical insurance and long term disability insurance.

The cost of life and accident insurance for a pastor earning $7000 to $8000 a year is $16.80 a month. This would provide $24,000 life insurance, $24,000 accident dis- memberment and $48,000 accidental death. The cost for long term disability ins. would be $3.44 per month for a 40 year old. The cost of the best medical insurance on the same 40 yr. old with a family is $46.80 per month.

Churches need to look into the possibility of increasing the pastor or church em- ployee's income and the other insurance programs.

If I can be of assistance, please contact me.

HISTORICAL SKETCHES OF MT. ZION CHURCHES

Brief histories of Mt. Zion Churches are recorded in the Minutes of the years as herewith listed. The Association Historian suggests that every church in the Associa- tion have copies of the Associational Minutes bound every ten years and keep them in the local church libraries. This will make the Minutes of the years available to all the churches, and those bound volumes will grow more valuable- with each passing year.

Although our Association has had Historians almost from the date of its organiza- tion still the clerk was not able to find the history of any church recorded in the Min- utes until 1921. Just why the sketches of other years were not recorded in the Minutes is inexplainable.

At the 1874 session of the Association it was decided to elect a Historian annually. Hie Minutes of 1875 record that "The report of the Historian was adopted and ordered to be recorded in the "Books of Records of the Association." No trace of this book exists. Vne historical sketches from 1921 are shown in Minutes as follows:

Dedication

These Minutes are dedicated to the memory of Edwin Scott Love and Rev. Hiram Dudley Booth who not only served the churches where they were members but also the Association and the State Convention.

In memory of Ed Love, whose Chris- tian service and ministry was done quietly and without fanfare for the eyes of his Lord rather than those of men.

"I was a hungered and you gave me meat "

Rev. H. D. Booth will be remem- bered for his Evangelistic Zeal, his ded- ication to Missions and his love for people. The extravagant expenditure of his life in Christian service through the churches, the Association and the Con- ventions in which he labored shall be an example to us all.

"A good minister of Jesus Christ."

SUPERINTENDENT OF MISSIONS REPORT

How appropriate that in the year when Southern Baptists have the theme, "Share His Love Now", Mt. Zion Baptists have become personally and actively engaged in sharing God's love through an Emergency Child Care Home. While this is only one of many things undertaken this year by the Association, it certainly overshadows everything else in terms of effort ex- pended and money spent. The first of its kind in North Carolina for Baptists and perhaps the first of its kind among Baptists, this home has already served twenty children and youth after opening its doors with more than half of the associational year over. Nancy and Richard Dickinson have done a tremen- dous job in working with these children and with our churches in the associa- tion. We still have an outstanding debt of over $9,000.00 which we really need to pay as quickly as possible in order to avoid paying additional interest. I am confident that if each church member in the Mt. Zion Association could see and know the good done by this home, every one would give the $1.00 necessary to repay this loan.

We are happy to see signs of progress among our churches. A number have been and still are, in major building programs. Church programs are being evaluated, reinforced and some instances changed to meet changing need. I am encouraged by the creative efforts of our churches and their lead- ership as they seek to meet today's challenges.

Again this year, we will welcome a new church to our association. The North Graham Baptist Church, a mission of the First Baptist Church of Graham, was constituted into a church this year and is petitioning the asso- ciation for membership. They have already established the pattern of financial

32

support of the association and of the Southern Baptist Mission program. This church has received aid through the State Baptist Convention and without it, its establishment possibly would have been delayed.

The Colonial Hills Baptist Mission continues to grow under the leadership of pastor Monty Fox. The Fairview Baptist Church continues to give its strong support to this church and other churches in the southern part of the association have made contributions.

One of my concerns this year has been the number of pastor-less churches in the association. This has improved as churches have extended calls and pastors have come on the field. We welcome them and offer our encourage- ment and support. We are also genuinely grateful for the fine work of several interim pastors who provide capable leadership for these churches without pastors.

It is apparent that the economic and social conditions of our nation are influencing our churches as we see more and more members exhibiting dis- satisfaction with church programs and leadership. The frustration of being unable to alter national conditions makes us more critical vocally of situa- tions in our churches. We must face the fact that no one person is respon- sible for declining Sunday School attendance, baptisms or unfilled leadership positions. We all share the responsibility and the opportunity. It is true now, more than ever, that the defeats or victories that a church experiences are the direct result of the quality of commitment of the church membership. The only way to succeed in a difficult task is to work at it. Like Nehemiah of old, we need to realize that we are doing a great work and do not have the time to get involved in meaningless dialogue with those who would deter God's work.

All the political and economic prophets predict a difficult year for the nation. If this is true, it just means that churches have a greater opportunity to provide the spiritual guidance and help we all need. Let's go to work!

Respectfuly submitted,

Charles L. McMillen, Jr. Superintendent of Missions

SUNDAY SCHOOL REPORT

We have seen the tasks of the Sunday School listed many times. It may seem trite to mention them again, but in order to establish a point, please permit me this liberty.

The tasks of the Sunday School are: (1) Teach (2) Reach (3) Minister (4) Witness (5) Inform

How will our churches fulfill these tasks? Many of our churches have just recently completed a "People Search" campaign. This has surely resulted in finding many new prospects.

33

How are we going to deal with these prospects? Are we going to allow these names to fill a dusty file in some seldom used drawer in our churches?

The best answer by far would be to seek out these people both lost and unchurched and lead them to a closer relationship with Jesus Christ. Let us seek to make Christ a vital part of their lives.

We can also look back on our Vacation Bible Schools and be thankful for many of the most successful schools that we have had in many years. Surely this is a result of dedicated work by concerned Christian workers. These people deserve our heartfelt thanks.

Of our 39 churches, 22 have reported Vacation Bible Schools for 1974, enrolling a total of 2,723 in the schools, with a mission giving of $890.34 and reporting 8 professions of faith.

Let us have faith that our VBS will be even better in 1975.

May we dedicate ourselves to the task for 1975, seeking people for Christ and not for the purpose of vague numbers to fill church pews.

Respectfuly submitted,

J. A. Taylor

Sunday School Director

CHURCH TRAINING REPORT

"CHURCH, THE SUNDAY NIGHT PLACE", received special emphasis in our Association this year. Many churches expanded their Sunday night activities to include new member training, church leader training, methods training, and special subject matter courses of short-term duration. All of this was in addition to the on-going training program carried on by the churches. Sunday night services in many cases were enlivened with special features to create interest and enthusiasm.

As Church Training Director, I was directly involved in the enlistment and training of workers for the Vacation Bible School Clinics held at Mebane in April. Three workers attended the State Clinic held at Wingate. The local clinics were a great success, with a total of 252 enrolled.

Launch Night on September 10 at Graham was an unqualified success. The Church Training Program was presented with the aid of puppets and youth from First Baptist Church in Burlington, N.C. The use of puppets is increasing and is a valuable teaching and entertaining aid. All of the church programs presented on Launch Night were done in an unusual and interesting way.

Respectfuly submitted,

WOMAN'S MISSIONARY UNION

Our southwide emphasis for 1973-74, Mission Support, was designed to reach all members of WMU organizations. Mt. Zion WMU has endeavored to interpret the three aspects of Mission Support: Praying, giving and creating a climate in which persons can respond to the call for mission service.

On October 6, 1973, eight of our Baptist Young Women represented our Association at the state BYW Convention in Winston-Salem at Knollwood Baptist Church.

Our Acteens held a meeting at Grove Park October 14, 1973 to train all girls in their work for the new year. We had 75 attend from 10 churches.

In January, Mrs. H. D. Booth, Baptist Women Director, and the writer went to Colonial Hills Mission and helped the six ladies present organize Baptist Women. Also in January, Mrs. Booth and Mrs. Luke reviewed the Baptist Women Leader Manual at Eastlawn. We had three churches par- ticipating, Eastlawn, Calvary, and Glen Raven.

Our Acteens held an International Banquet February 12 at Burlington, First. Each Acteen group decorated a table to represent a country and then presented something symbolic of that country during the talent hour. We were so pleased to have 141 attend representing 16 churches. Our thanks to Susan Winstead and Beverly Alford for planning a terrific evening.

Our state WMU Convention held March 11-12 at Benton Convention Center, Winston-Salem, was well attended by our Mt. Zion ladies. Miss Miriam Robinson, past state WMU Executive Secretary, brought the medita- tions. We heard from seven different mission fields and heard Dr. Cal Guy, Professor of Missions, Southwestern Baptist Seminary, speak on "Taking the Word to Those in Need".

Our annual meeting on March 19th at Swepsonville brought attendance from all but four churches in our association. We heard Mrs. Dwight Baker from Israeland had taped messages from our Mt. Zion Journeymen, Vickie Estes in Hong Kong and Lee Keck in Japan

In April, our Acteens held a Creative Arts Festival at Glen Hope. The purpose of the Festival was to encourage girls and leaders to participate in the National Cooperative Program Creative Arts Contest at Ridgecrest during WMU Week. Special guest was Mrs. Fred Scott, state approved Acteen worker, who provided a period of song and inspiration at the close of the activities.

The Age-level Directors along with your WMU Director were invited to West Hill Baptist Church in May and we held a Mini Leadership Workshop for one evening. Phyllis Mills and Sharon Frizzell, BYW Directors, helped organize BYW at Cross Roads Baptist Church. They were so pleased over seven young women responding to this new mission organization. Our Associational BYW also held a meeting on August 14 at Northside Baptist Church and shared the Journeyman tapes.

35

Our Girls-in-Action held a Sleep-In August 16th at Grove Park. We had 118 girls, 24 leaders and 4 visitors from 13 churches. They had a marvelous evening of fun and fellowship as well as a time of spiritual enrichment through Bible stories, devotions, a missionary speaker, and a tape especially to them from Lee Keck in Japan.

August 3rd our Acteens held a Stewardship Prayer Retreat at Oak Grove. At this time, Mrs. Page Robinson of Grove Park reviewed the book, "Hay- stacks to Skylabs".

Two girls from Northside, Betty Anne Mincey and Deborah Duncan, served again as Counselors at Camp Mundo Vista this summer. We would like for other churches to encourage your young ladies who are rising seniors or college are to consider applying for this meaningful experience at Mundo Vista. It will be a spiritually rewarding summer.

All Age-Level Directors attended the Workshop at Mundo Vista August 30-31 and September 6-7. Leadership training was provided on September 24th at McDuffie Memorial and 146 women responded from 24 of our churches. We urge any church needing help in WMU work to call on us individually and your WMU Council will be happy to respond.

We commend the following organizations for their efforts in 1972-73:

DISTINGUISHED ADVANCED MERIT

Burlington, First Moore's Chapel Antioch

Grove Park Bethel

Hillsborough, First (2) Graham, First

Hocutt Memorial Haw River, First

Mebane, First (6) Kinnett Memorial

McDuffie Memorial Northside

Our Mt. Zion Journeymen, Vickie Estes and Lee Keck, send us truly amaz- ing reports as God has opened many doors for them since being in Hong Kong and Japan. Won't you help make their second year an even more wonderful year of service for our Lord as you lift them in prayer daily. They are counting on you and me for this prayer support!

As we begin another year and think of our new emphasis, "Love Thy Neighbor" remember one single individual committed to expressing Chris- tian Love through action on a continuing bases can change an entire neigh- borhood. Won't you ask yourself these questions:

Do my neighbors know I love them?

Isn't it about time they did?

BROTHERHOOD

The Brotherhood has not been as active as we anticipated it would this year. However, we are happy to report the re-activation of several Baptist Men's groups in our churches. We enjoy a fruitful Pastor-Deacon Retreat and look forward to another at Camp Caraway November 1 and 2.

Respectfully submitted,

Virgil Hemrick

Associational Brotherhood Director

NOTE: Unfortunately, soon after Mr. Hemrick assumed leadership of our Associational Brotherhood program, the energy crisis forced a change in his job requiring him to be out of town a great deal. This severely limited his opportunity to work with Men's groups and he has been very concerned about it. We do appreciate very much his concern and work.

MISSIONS COMMITTEE

Your missions committee has been busy in basically two areas this year. We have worked in an advisory capacity with the Colonial Hills Mission and to a less extent with the North Graham Baptist Church. We are happy that both these churches are showing steady progress. The committee is also interested in other developing areas of the Association and would like to have information about areas that member churches feel need our attention. One such area around Efland has been discussed by our committee.

The committee has also discussed work with the Elon Baptist Student Union and some funds have been made available in this year's proposed budget. A considerable amount of time was spent encouraging a summer youth program that never developed. We have hopes of more being done this next summer.

The largest amount of our time was spent in establishing the Baptist Emergency Home in Burlington. The committees, churches, and individuals who worked with us in renovating and furnishing this home, functioned magnificantly. Since opening in June some 20 youngsters have received ser- vices and we are deeply grateful for your help in making this possible.

In the next few years we anticipate a large number of children will be served and we want churches to continue to help by being involved with these youngsters and their needs. We urge you to call Mr. and Mrs. Dickinson at the home and see what you can do to be of assistance.

We are grateful that Mt. Zion Baptists have this opportunity to share His Love Now.

Respectfully submitted,

Ralph Cannon, Chairman

EXECUTIVE BOARD REPORT

Your Executive Committee met at its appointed times this year, January 14, April 8, July 8 and October 14.

In the January meeting the Executive Board, upon the recommendation of the Missions Committee, authorized Paul Craig and Raymond Campbell to supervise renovation of the Emergency Care Home, appointed a committee to look after the Summer Youth program, named Phil Hardee as an addition to the missions committee because of his relationship to the Colonial Hills Mission, and invited both Colonial Hills and North Graham Missions to have representatives at the Executive Board meetings.

At the April meeting, Jim Taylor, Associational Sunday School Director, reported on the Teacher Improvement and Reach Out campaigns. Edna Smith, Associational WMU Director, reported on the organization of a WMU at Colonial Hills, a successful Acteens banquet with 141 in attendance, and a fine annual WMU meeting as Swepsonville. A Youth revival was announced by Charles Jones to be held at Burlington First with Chestor Swor speaking.

40

The Finance Committee recommended the borrowing of $11,000.00 on a 90 day note renewal four times over the signature of the finance committee. This was duly adopted by the Executive Board.

Margaret Cantrell, Associational Music Director, outlined plans for a children's choir camp at the July meeting and expressed appreciation for the youth choirs that participated in the Youth Revival at Burlington First. Ralph Cannon, chairman of the Missions Committee, asked that approval be given to a request for pastoral aid for Oak Grove Baptist Church. It was granted.

The October meeting provided an opportunity to meet new members of the Executive Board and one new pastor, Clarence Randolph of Glencoe. Johnny Greene, chairman of the Finance Committee presented the proposed 74-75 budget and it was adopted. Mention was made of the necessity of raising the $9000.00 indebtedness on the Emergency Care Home by pro- viding special offering envelopes.

Jim Taylor reminded the members of High Attendance Day in Sunday School November 17th and requested churches to report their attendance as soon as possible on the day of the 17th.

Special recognition was given to Paul Craig for his service as Moderator for the last two years.

Respectfully submitted, Paul Craig, Moderator Freeman Cooper, Clerk

MUSIC

During this past year, music has played an important role in our Associ- ational meetings and in outreach in our local churches. It has been a privilege to work with other directors and organizations in planning music for their meetings.

An Associational Children's Choir Camp was held July 16, 1974 at Grove Park Baptist Church in which more than 30 fourth, fifth and sixth graders from eight local churches took part.

During the week of August 5th-9th, 1974, 10 youth choirs from the local churches participated in a Youth Revival at First Baptist Church, Burling- ton, N. C.

There have been two sharing sessions with our Mt. Zion music directors this year.

On September 6-7, 1974, four music directors attended the second Annual Part-Time/Volunteer Music Director's Retreat at CaRAway.

Also, Mrs. Julius Thompson, Jr. of First Church, Graham, is serving as a Regional Choir Director on the state level this year. Thank you, "Barky".

41

Our calendar for the coming year includes:

April 7-10, 1975 N.C. Church Music Conference

July 15, 1975 Children's Music Camp

September 12-13, 1975. .Part-Time/Volunteer Music Directors Retreat

EVANGELISM

During the past year, the Evangelism Committee has not directly spon- sored any special programs in the association. However, the work of evan- gelistic outreach has shown strong progress. In addition to the witness of the pulpit in our churches, there is evidence of a strong ministry of ourreach through Sunday School ministries and church-directed outreach visitation programs.

Evangelism is at the very heart of the church's mission. It was evangelism the caring of someone that brought every one of us to Christ. Ours is the perpetual task of bringing men and women face to face with Jesus. Every church has a clear responsibility for every lost person within its reach, and every Christian has a responsibility for all those with whom he can personally share the gospel.

It is indeed gratifying that we have in the Mt. Zion Association, a great and select group of God's choice servants; men who love the Lord and have a compassionate concern for the lost. It is also gratifying that so many of our church members are involved in personal witnessing and outreach ministries.

The Evangelism Committee expresses sincere appreciation to all of our churches for their efforts in outreach ministry during the past year. We pledge to continue our prayers for each church and individual.

May God continue to bless as we expand our efforts to confront our genera- tion with the life redeeming message of salvation in Jesus Christ.

Charles Jones, Chairman

OUR BAPTIST EMERGENCY HOME

(Historian's Report)

Of course, we were glad to see the evidence of spring, but the sun got mighty hot as it beamed down upon this group of Mt. Zion Baptists standing on the lawn at the corner of Morehead and Broad Streets in Burlington. It

42

was May 19, and these Baptists had inspected the dwelling which has been freshly renovated to house the Baptist Emergency Home being opened for service.

Officials from the North Carolina Baptist Childrens' Home the Reverend Mr. W. Isaac Terrell, director of development, and the Rev. Mr. Parker McLendon, superintendent of Mills Home were on hand to commend the Baptists of this association for their willingness to cooperate in the establish- ment of this pilot program, to review the need for such and to introduce Mr. and Mrs. Richard Dickinson who would be living at this address and acting as parents to those children who would find help here.

Speeches of response were heard from the Reverend Mr. Charles McMillan, superintendent of Missions in the Mt. Zion Association, from Mr. Paul Craig, moderator of the Association, and from Mrs. Dickinson, Director of the Emergency Care Home.

Two days later, May 21, 1974, the first youngster, a fifteen year-old girl, was admitted. Since that time, nineteen problem-ridden children have lived there. About an equal number of girls and boys, they have ranged in age from seven to seventeen years. The length of residence has been all the way from one single night to the maximum time of three months. Says Mrs. Dickin- son, "This is proof that we have working with us a mighty good custodian, leaving only three out of a total of nineteen to remain here for the maxi- mum residence".

Have our directors encountered major problems? Well, not really! The difficulties noted has been related to age. Girls, who have been from thirteen to seventeen years of age, have found it difficult to adjust to a temporary residence. Their own personal problems have been more serious and pro- nounced than have those of the boys who have ranged in age from ten to twelve years. The age factor has had its effect upon placement, too. But problems within the home, arising from the family style of living, have been minimal and inconsequential.

What has it cost to meet the needs of one of these youngsters? In answering that question, Mrs. Dickinson explained that our program is yet too young for an accurate figure to be established. She continued that the amount would very likely compare to that required to care for a single child at Mills Home ten to twelve dollars per day. However, no definite figure has thus far been determined for this pilot program, the first of its kind in North Carolina.

And what, in general, does Mrs. Dickinson have to say to the Baptists of the Mt. Zion Baptist Association? Hers is a word of deep appreciation for meeting a very real need in this area. With a full house of five ever since the home was opened, she could have taken in two for every one admitted, a significant commentary on the need. She is most grateful to the Mt. Zion Association for coming to the aid of these disturbed children.

BAPTIST HOSPITAL

"Ministering with skill and understanding" is still the emphasis at Baptist Hospital, in spite of the growth in size and complexity. Evidence of this is a typical patient's remark recently: "From the head surgeon to the aids who handed me a glass of water, with all the doctors, nurses, people in the busi- ness office and chaplains in between, I was cheerfully given every personal consideration."

Changes and additions continue to be made for the purpose of providing better hospital care. Renovation of the progressive Care Unit has been com- pleted, and the South and West Wings of the hospital building are now being renovated. Construction of the Ambulatory Care Unit is well under way and is scheduled for completion in the spring or early summer of 1975.

New discoveries continue to make possible better medical care. For exam- ple, a new EMI-Scanner is to be installed and is expected to be in use before the end of the year. This device, which combines the use of x-rays and computers, will make it possible to detect brain tumors, blood clots, and strokes more accurately and more quickly. Scans can be completed in about 30 minutes and the results can be available in another five minutes. There is no risk or discomfort involved, and the patient does not have to be admitted to the hospital.

New approaches are also being made in the hospital's ministry to the emotional and spiritual needs of people. The Division of Human Enrichment and Development, in the Department of Pastoral Care, is conducting retreats, seminars and workshops designed to help appropriate the resources of the Christian faith to the various areas and experiences of life. The Pastoral Care Department has also opened its first satellite center, in Fayetteville, to offer counseling and training to people in that area. Your Cooperative Pro- gram gifts help to support these ministries.

Your hospital staff and the people they serve, are grateful for your interest, your prayers and your financial support.

Baptist Hospital Representative

YOUTH AND FAMILY SERVICE

Our Association is one of sixteen that have working agreements with the Home Mission Board and the State Convention in this field in North Carolina. Ours, like all of the rest of our Missions Department, exists for the purpose of bringing men, women and children to Christ and to help humanity in finding the meaning of the "abundant life" in Christ.

Our work depends entirely upon the concern of Christians throughout the Association in meeting local need and in bringing to the attention of the Director needs which he can meet. We continue to urge each church not

44

already involved to appoint a local church committee to meet the needs of family problems and the cry for help we are hearing today from youth.

The Director stands ready to help in counselling and referring other prob- lems to individuals and agencies capable of handling problems beyond the training and ability of the Director.

Good relationships now exists between the Director and the law enforce- ment agencies and in most cases the courts. Continue to pray for the present "part-time" program and that someday the program will be filled with a "full-time" Director.

HOMES FOR THE AGING

For over 23 years now, we have had a part in serving hundreds of older people and making life much happier and secure for them.

We have done so through the special offerings for the Homes, received on the third Sunday of February each year and the Cooperative Program. Gifts through these two sources have increased from year to year, providing more than 30% of the budget needed to operate 5 resident Homes and the Nursing Care Unit.

God, through Baptists, has blessed this ministry of our Homes for the Aging in a remarkable way, establishing two homes in Winston Salem, Rest- haven and the Hayes Home, the Nursing Care Unit and three other Homes at Albemarle, Hamilton, and Yanceyville. In these Homes, 4 out of every 5 residents depend upon our love gifts and simply could not be cared for without our help.

Of greatest significance during the past year, has been the decision to establish a 6th Home in Western North Carolina, to be located in the city of Asheville on a beautiful twenty-one acre site, overlooking the city. A dedicated group of people in the Western Carolina area have organized the first phase of what is hoped will become a major State-wide fund-raising effort to obtain the necessary money to build this proposed Home. Church groups are encouraged to visit this beautiful site and will be served lunch if an appointment is made in advance.

With the addition of a 6th Home, spiraling living costs, and the ever- increasing needs of older people, it is most urgent that our Baptist people be more generous than ever in support for the Homes through the February offering, the Cooperative program, and an over and above gift for the West- ern Carolina Home.

45

Ministry to an older person is a direct ministry as unto Christ Himself and is most pleasing to Him, we are sure!

Mrs. Doris Thompson,

Homes for The Aging Representative

BIBLICAL RECORDER

The BIBLICAL RECORDER is grateful for another good year, although these are difficult days for religious publications. Some have had to go out of business while others are squeezed by rising costs. The RECORDER has not escaped the pressures of inflation. For example, paper has risen 61 per- cent already this year and the end is not in sight.

Even so, the RECORDER has been in business for 141 years and expects to continue. A few changes have to be made, however, to keep the paper strong. As Staff members have resigned or retired, they have not been replaced. Some weeks the number of pages has to be reduced to save money, but readers have been very understanding.

Despite some problems, the RECORDER is enjoying its highest circula- tion in history more than 1 1 1,000 thanks to the continuing support of the vast majority of Baptist churches in the state. These churches and their mem- bers remember the part the RECORDER played in the overwhelming defeat of liquor by the drink last November. This is probably the most significant story that the RECORDER has reported since the Associations met last year.

This is probably the most significant story that the RECORDER has reported since the associations met last year. You will remember hat approxi- mately 70 per cent of the voters in the state voted against liquor by the drink and it was defeated in 97 out of 100 counties. This should take care of that issue for awhile.

The RECORDER will continue its emphasis on local church coverage, seeking to deal with problems that every church has. Naturally, we are prej- udiced, but we do not believe that any publication can take the place of the BIBLICAL RECORDER. If your church does not send it to every famly, may we ask a simple question: WHY? At a cost of only a nickel a week for each family, this is the best investment a Baptist Church can make. Put the RECORDER in the budget before it has to increase the rate because of inflation.

ORDINATIONS

The ordinations Committee of the Mt. Zion Baptist Association was asked to examine two candidates for ordination during the year 1973-74. Follow- ing the request of the Fellowship Baptist Church of Burlington, Ronald Coleman was examined March 3rd with four of the five members present. The committee voted without opposition to recommend his ordination with the condition that he continue his theological education. On May 19, upon the request of the Kinnett Memorial Baptist Church of Burlington, the Con. mittee with all members present, examined Brantley Stevens, pastor of the Ebenezer Baptist Church of South Mills, N.C. The unanimous recommenda- tion to the church was that he be ordained. Several members of the committee participated in this service, June 9, 1974.

BAPTIST CHILDREN'S HOMES

Christian child care is a shared adventure. We proceed by faith to build a helping relationship with children and their families in need. We cannot know in advance the final outcome, but we are confident of God's power to work in these relationships for reconciliation and healing.

Much has happened this year to strengthen the foundations for our ministry of child care. The recreation and administration buildings at Broyhill Home are nearing completion. A cottage and two staff residences at Kennedy Home will soon be dedicated. A challenge gift of $100,000 has been received for the development of Greer-Burris Home at Chapel Hill.

"The Mountain Within," a thirty-minute 16mm sound picture, has been filmed to tell the story of the Children's Homes. It was premiered at the Piedmont Area Conference, September 12. Following extensive use on state- wide television broadcasts, it was released for showings to churches, associa- tions, civic clubs and other interested groups, October 1. Place your order

47

for the film through the Department of Communications of the Baptist State Convention.

Our Piedmont Area services have expanded significantly during the past year. Mills Home continues to provide the highest quality group care to more than two hundred school age children. Wall Home has pioneered with an exciting outdoor high-adventure program for a group of teenage boys. Our first Emregency Care Home opened in Burlington May 19, and a similar home was opened in Charlotte in late summer. These two homes represent a cooperative venture with the Mount Zion and Mecklenburg Associations to provide emergency care on the local scene. New foster homes have been licensed and have increased the number of foster home children in care.

The continuing good will and generous support of our friends throughout the State make possible this vigorous and progressive ministry of child care. During the past year, North Carolina Baptists gave more than a million dol- lars to Christian child care in the North Carolina Baptist Children's Homes through the Cooperative Program, the Thanksgiving offering, and designated gifts and offerings. Rising costs and the need for expanding services chal- lenge all of us staff and supporters to continue our investment in the shared adventure of Christian child care.

ANNUITY BOARD REPORT

jport w ciation b^Mrs. H. D. Booth

The be/ Annuity report we can give is to share with you a word of appre-

49

"Words cannot express our gratitude for foresight of churches and the administrative excellence of the Annuity Board. Because churches and their leaders had the love and concern to provide for their pastor's retirement, and because Southern Baptist leadership had the ability and determination to set up a helpful program, my family and I will enjoy its benefits. We are deeply grateful for the widow's supplement, the income assistance and insurance made possible by the dedicated concern and efforts of Baptists. I urge every church to be as thoughtful as those my husband and I have been privileged to serve".

Do you know how much your pastor would receive at retirement? Did you know that this can be supplemented? Be concerned enough to find out!

COOPERATIVE PROGRAM

1975 marks the 50th ANNIVERSARY of the Cooperative kogram. This represents fifty years of cooperatively sharing Christ with the weld. Southern Baptists have frequently been called a people on mission fo God. This mission is best carried out through doing those ministries which-t would be impossible to perform individually. Cooperation of this magnitudeis a unique feature of Southern Baptists. The Cooperative Program might we! be called our trademark.

50

Sunday, April 20, 1975, will be observed across the Southern Baptist Convention as Cooperative Program 50th Anniversary Sunday. Every church is challenged to observe this as a day of study, prayer and commitment to the Cooperative Program. Church members will be asked to sign a "Declara- tion of Cooperation'' saying in effect. '"After prayerful study, I commit myself to the Cooperative Program as a primary channel of world mission support."

Our goals for the coming year are:

1. Every church in the Association having a specific celebration for the 50th Anniversary of the Cooperative Program.

2. Every church in the Association increasing Cooperative Program giving by at least 1 % of the total budget income.

3. Every church in the Association giving at least 3% of the total budget income to Associational Missions.

CHRISTIAN ACTION LEAGUE

The officers, trustees, and the Executive Director of the Christian Action League take this opportunity to express to the members of this association, convened in annual session, their appreciation for the wonderful support which you gave in the liquor campaign last fall. We are still rejoicing in the wonderful victory that God gave to us. To receive over 70% of the vote in our favor and to carry 97 counties in the state is remarkable, indeed. It is a tribute to the wonderful spirit of cooperation on the part of people like you across the state.

Recently, a survey in North Carolina included the question, "Do you know what the Christian Action League of North Carolina is?" The results were: Yes 80.6% No, 18.6% No answer, 8% The polling company had the following comment: . . "Pretty good recog- nition for an organization funded mainly by . . religious groups."

We are looking to the future. At the annual meeting in April, seven Task Forces were appointed, as follows:

TASK FORCE ON PRISON REFORM

TASK FORCE ON HIGHWAY SAFETY

TASK FORCE ON ALCOHOL DRUG CONTROL LAWS

TASK FORCE ON OBSCENITY AND PORNOGRAPHY

TASK FORCE ON TAX REFORM

TASK FORCE ON CAPITAL PUNISHMENT

TASK FORCE ON BANNING ADVERTISING OF ALCOHOL

51

CHRISTIAN HIGHER EDUCATION

Churches and Colleges are Partners

While churches and colleges are not identical in their purposes, Baptist churches and Baptist Colleges in North Carolina do their work in an atmo- sphere of mutual appreciation. This active partnership includes Baptist Youth Corps, student-led worship and revival services, visits to the campuses by pastors and other leaders, participation of faculty and staff in associational and local church programs, and special projects of promotion on behalf of the Cooperative Program.

Cooperative Program

Your seven Baptist colleges are grateful for the continuing financial sup- port which they receive through the Cooperative Program. During 1974, approximately $2,350,000 will undergird the work of North Carolina Baptist Colleges. At a very crucial and difficult time, these funds make a tremendous difference in the quality of programs offered by our schools.

Baptist Students

The colleges make a special effort to recruit North Carolina Baptist stu- dents through pastors and superintendents of missions. No qualified student will be turned away simply because of inability to pay. Baptist colleges are anxious to enroll the young people from our churches.

Change in Wingate College Leadership

After 20 years of effective leadership, Dr. Budd E. Smith resigned the pres- idency of Wingate College. On June 1, Dr. Thomas E. Corts of Georgetown, Kentucky, assumed the presidency of the seventy-eight year old institution. Dr. Corts, the eleventh president of Wingate College, came to this position with excellent preparation and experience.

Council on Christian Higher Education

Our colleges Campbell, Chowan, Gardner Webb, Mars Hill, Meredith, Wake Forest and Wingate work together and with the Baptist State Con- vention through the Council on Christian Higher Education. The Council office is eager to assist both the churches and the colleges in the promotion of understanding and cooperation as together they deal creatively with persons in the name of our Lord.

HISTORICAL SKETCHES OF MT. ZION CHURCHES

Brief histories of Mt. Zion Churches are recorded in the Minutes of the years as herewith listed. The Association Historian suggests that every church in the Association have copies of the Associational Minutes bound every ten years and keep them in the local church libraries. This will make the Minutes of the years available to all the churches, and those bound volumes will grow more valuable with each passing year.

Although our Association has had Historians almost from the date of its organization still the clerk was not able to find the history of any church recorded in the Minutes until 1921. Just why the sketches of other years were not recorded in the Minutes is inexplainable.

At the 1874 session of the Association it was decided to elect a Historian annually. The Minutes of 1875 record that "The report of the Historian was adopted and ordered to be recorded in the "Books of Records of the Associ- ation." No trace of this book exists. The historical sketches from 1921 are shown in Minutes as follows:

DEDICATED IN MEMORY

TO

GEORGE E. SIMMONS

George, a native of Tennessee, held pastorates in Tennessee, Virginia, and North Carolina. He served with distinction as a Chaplain in the Army during World War II, and later as a full colonel. He was a life dedicated to God and service to his fellow man. He had a stone on his desk which was labeled "The First Stone." George never threw the "First Stone" or the second either. He was a leader in the North Carolina Baptist State Convention, serving as Vice-Presi- dent, Vice Chairman of the General Board, and Chairman of the Missions Committee. As Chairman of the Missions Committee, he spent many hours trying to allocate money for young struggling churches and to assist in pastoral aid. He loved all his fellow pastors and was loved and respected by them. In his last pastorate, the First Baptist Church of Hillsborough, he was known as "Mr. Hillsborough." His was a peculiar talent of proclaiming the good news and hoping to lift others.

His gracious attitutde toward Ruth, his beloved companion, was a thing of beauty and ten- derness. The two were really "one."

He served his country well as a Chaplain in World War II and in 1946 at the Southern Baptist Convention in Miami, Florida, his fellow Chaplains honored him by electing him the first President of the Southern Baptist Chaplain's Association. The Honorable Pat N. Neff, Presi- dent of the SBC introduced him to the Convention in session and asked George if he would say a few words to the Convention. George replied, "Mr. President, I want to thank the SBC for giving to me the honor of serving with some of the finest men in the world, in the greatest Army on Earth, under the greatest flag."

His home going was not the quarry slave going to his darkened dungeon, but as an honored son returning home to his own father. He served his Lord and his fellowman unto the end. Our state is a better state by his serving in our midst but his home going was a thing of com- mitment and beauty.

WHO IS MY NEIGHBOR?

The 1974-75 year has been the usual eventful year in Mt. Zion. Some of our goals have been met, and some have not. I'm convinced there is little value in dwelling on accomplishments. We can learn from failures but most of us would rather not talk about them. What concerns me at this time are the unmet needs all about us. There are churches in radically changing neighborhoods that need to adjust their approaches and ministries. There are groups that need special attention singles adults, the handicapped, the very young, and the elderly, to mention a few. We need to develop in the association a comprehensive program of family enrichment that will include associational premarital conferences and qualified Christian counseling for families in trouble.

In January of 1976 we will begin our third year on a five year lease of our Emergency Home. During the first year and one-half of operation, the need for this type of facility has been firmly demonstrated. Now we must give serious consideration to acquiring suitable land and build- ing a permanent facility for this ministry. In order to do this we must begin developing finan- cial resources. We need to tap sufficient resources to provide an endowment or trust fund or at least begin a savings account. We can encourage businesses and foundations to make gifts and individuals to put the home in their wills.

Upon recommendation of the missions committee and approval by the executive board, a World Missions Conference has been scheduled for our association in November, 1977. The conference will provide an opportunity for each church who participates to hear five mission- aries from the foreign, home, and state fields. We would like very much to have 100 percent participation from our churches and this is one of the reasons for the long-range planning and promotion. In order to pay travel, lodging, meals, and a small honorarium, it will be necessary to ask each church for approximately $200. Many may feel this is too much, but the only alter- native is to supplement the churches' gifts with money from the associational treasury and after all, it comes from the same source. We hope no church will refuse to participate due to lack of money for we will supplement where necessary. If churches would plan now to be a part of the conference by putting aside $20.00 per month in a savings account or sending it to the association and designating it World Mission Conference, the money will be on hand by November 1977. Please take advantage of this opportunity.

We have a great association, but our needs continue to be great. At the moment we are ser- verly limited by a lack of financial support. Gifts from the churches have increased signifi- cantly in the past several years, but the cost of programs has gone up too. We are barely able to keep doing what we have in the past, much less attempting much expansion. I would be remiss if I did not thank each of you for your generous support of all kinds. We deeply ap- preciate all you do.

Respectfully submitted, Charles L. McMillan, Jr. Superintendent of Missions

BROTHERHOOD

One of the greatest needs of our Association is spiritual renewal on the part of the people in the pew, especially the men. Renewal should bring an awareness of the responsibility in min- istry and witness. Our stewardship will be shallow until we men are renewed spiritually. We need in this century, an enthusiastic witnessing, praying, giving going laity.

The Associational Brotherhood is an organization that assists churches in the Mount Zion Association with their mission programs for men and boys. The objective is to assist churches to:

1. ESTABLISH Organize New Baptist Men and Royal Ambassador Chapters

2. CONDUCT— Improve Unit Meetings

3. ENLARGE— Organize additional Baptist Men's Units and Royal Ambassador Chapters

4. IMPROVE Plan better programs and more relevant related activities of Brotherhood

work. We are happy to report some facts about our Brotherhood for 1974-75: On the 39 churches, we have 19 directors, with 22 churches having some Brotherhood ac- tivities. There are 252 men involved in Brotherhood work, and 265 boys and young men active in the Royal Ambassador work.

24

We thank God for the work these men and boys are doing. What are we going to do to help these people do God's work? May we dedicate ourselves to the task for 1975-1976, renewing ourselves to witness, praying, giving, and having a going laity.

Respectfully submitted, H. G. Foster, Director Associational Brotherhood

SUNDAY SCHOOL

We can now look in retrospect at our work for the past year and rejoice at the many good things that took place in our association. Our Sunday Schools have done well in spite of a very bad economic situation. Many of our churches lost key leaders because of this. We must not allow this to dampen our spirits for this very important area of our Lord's work.

We have seen some very successful work done on the part of our local churches and also on an associational level. Our Vacation Bible Schools reported excellent results and it is to all these people that made all this possible that our praise is due.

Looking at the upcoming year, we all are aware that 1976 is the 200th birthday of our great nation. Why not let the Lord get involved in our birthday celebration? Let's look carefully at our Adult possibilities and see if each church can begin a new Adult Bible Study class.

The State Convention will recognize the class by awarding them a certificate at the 1976 An- nual Associational meeting.

You are asked to advise the Associational office of the number of new adult classes begun anytime during the October 75 December 76 period.

How can we celebrate our nation's birthday? BY ORGANIZING AN AMERICA 76 ADULT BIBLE CLASS!

Respectfully submitted,

J. A. Taylor,

Associational Sunday School Director

MUSIC

Music always plays a vital role in our churches' and associational meetings. One highlight of our 1974 Annual Meeting was the formation of a pastor's quartet and an ensemble of lady music directors from our churches who provided music for two of the sessions.

On September 12-13, four or our music directors attended the Part-Time Volunteer Music Directors' Retreat at Caraway.

We are fortunate to have First Baptist Church of Graham hostessing a Regional Choir Festival on February 26-27, 1976. I would urge each choir to consider participating this year. Our calendar for the coming year includes: April 2-3 PraiSing at Ovens Auditorium, Charlotte April 26-28 N. C. Baptist Church Music Conference Spring 76 Mt. Zion PraiSing Clinic September 27-28 Church Music Methods Clinic

Respectfully submitted, Margaret Cantrell Associational Music Director

WOMAN'S MISSIONARY UNION

"Love Thy Neighbor" has been a WMU emphasis on family and churchwide mission action during 1974-75. Woman's Missionary Union has attempted to involve more people in witness and ministry and to stress personal renewal, spiritual growth and sharing.

1974-75 began a two-year emphasis on leader and member training, with Woman's Mis- sionary Union realizing the need for continuous training in missions education.

Realizing a deep need for spiritual renewal, our Baptist Women came together on October Zb, 1974 to Antioch Baptist Church for a Prayer Retreat.

25

Baptist Young Women have grown this year with new organizations begun at Mt. Zion, Kin- nett Memorial, Mebane First, and Riverside. In January 1975 Dr. Charles Petty, Director of Christian LIFE and Public Affairs of the Baptist State Convention, spoke to 125 BYW's and hus- bands. Our Mission Friends met at the same time with Director, Mrs. Guy Cain, teaching a mission book to the older children.

Our Acteen Council trained at the Acteen Blast at Mundo Vista Nov. 22-23, 1974, along with their Director, Beverly Alford. Their banquet in February was attended by 135 and Naomi Cowsert, an MK from Brazil, now studying at U NC-G, told of her life as a daughter of mission- aries. Mt. Zion Association was well represented at the FIRST State Acteens' Convention at Ridgecrest April 25-27 with 43 Acteens and leaders present. Each truly had a "mountain top" experience with the Lord.

Girls-ln-Action almost overflowed Eastlawn Baptist Church on August 22nd as they arrived for a "Sleep-In." The theme for the evening was "A Night In Japan" and featured Missionary journeyman, Lee Keck.

We commend the following WMU organizations for their achievements in 1973-74:

DISTINGUISHED ADVANCED MERIT

Hillsborough, First (3) Burlington, First Antioch

Mebane, First (7) Fairview Eastlawn

Swepsonville Glen Hope Kinnett Memorial

Grove Park McDuffie Memorial

Hocutt Memorial Moore's Chapel

Northside West Hill

Our two Journeymen, Lee Keck and Vickie Estes completed their two year terms in Japan and Hong Kong and returned home in July. We have been inspired by their sharing with us how God led them each step of the way as they tried to witness for Him in these two loca- tions.

As we begin a new year, our emphasis will be on freedom in Christ. We who live in liberty because of Christ must seek to be like Him so that we can show Him to others with confi- dence

EXECUTIVE BOARD REPORT

The Executive Board of the Mt. Zion Association, meeting January 1 3, approved a request of the Finance Committee to authorize the trustees to borrow $7,000.00 plus interest from the First Union National Bank of Graham in order to repay the short term loans already in force there. The motion was approved.

The resignation of Paul Craig from the Executive Board of the State Convention was acknowledged and the names of four people from the Association were presented to the meeting to be sent later to the State Executive Board for them to select one. Those approved were: Ralph Jones, Charles Lemley, Ben Cox and Johnny Greene.

The MARCH 2, 1975 special meeting was called by the Moderator, Gerald Dickerson, to consider a proposal by Kinnett Memorial Baptist Church to lend the Association $7,000.00 in- terest free, to take the place of the loan made from the First Union Nat'l Bank in January at 10 1/2% . After some discussion, the Executive Board approved borrowing the money from Kin- nett. (Eventually, only $6000.00 was borrowed because sufficient money had come in to pay $1,000.00 plus interest).

At the APRIL 14th meeting, it was noted that Ossipee, Haw River and Glen Raven churches all had new pastors. Three items of business were presented to the Board. A recommendation that the Association employ a summer worker, Steve Smith, with money provided by the State City and Metro Missions Dept., to do a study of the Association, was approved. A further recommendation that we employ a summer youth worker, Dale Hughes, with money pro- vided by the Campus Ministry Dept. of the State Convention, to work with youth programs and resort-type ministry programs, was also approved. The final recommendation was that the Association plan for a World Mission Conference for November 1977. The format is to be an eight-day meeting with the churches divided into two groups. One group will have mis- sionary speakers Sunday through Wednesday and the second group will have the missionaries Thursday through Sunday. In this way, each church will have five missionaries to speak at five services. The cost of the Conference including transportation, lodging and meals for the mis- sionaries, and a small honorarium is expected to run between $150-$200 per missionary and this will be about what it will cost each church.

The Executive Board met on the 14th of JULY to consider the following items: The Missions committee reported, through its chairman, Charles Jones, that it had been in conference with the Baptist Hospital about providing one-day-a-week counseling service in the association. This can be done for about $200.00 from the association for one year. A special offering for the Emergency Home and Associational Missions was recommended for August, along with a Week of Prayer for Associational Missions. It was noted that the Emergency Home is now licensed for 9 children. The Finance Committee Chairman, Johnny Greene, reported the fact that operating expenses were very low and bills and salaries were being paid late. The com- mittee recommended the borrowing of $3000.00 on short term notes, $1500.00 at a time, as needed. This was approved. The Properties Committee reported some repairs were needed at the missionary home and at the office. The committee was authorized to make them.

28

At the OCTOBER MEETING of the Executive Board, the Superintendent of Missions re- ported that only $1500.00 of the approved $3000.00, had been borrowed and that contribu- tions had picked up. Upon the presentation of the budget, considerable discussion took place regarding the lack of raises for the Associational staff. A motion to ask the finance committee to present cost of living increases at the Annual meeting was approved. The properties com- mittee reported its work was done with the exception of the purchase and installation of a new water heater at the missionary's home. Glen Con, pastor of the North Graham Baptist Church, said that he would ask his church to provide one.

MISSIONS

Your Missions Committee has worked to encourage the development of the Colonial Hills mission into a church and heartily commends it to the Association for membership as soon as it is constituted into a church.

The Committee has been in discussion with representatives of the Baptist Hospital about the provision of a Christian Counseling service in the association. The hospital is ready to pro- vide a staff member if our association can come up with approximately $2000.00 to under- write the program for a year. Where these programs have been provided (Fayetteville and Raleigh), the need has been so great as to call for immediate expansion of staff and for the most part, they have been self supporting.

This summer, we were fortunate to have two grants, one from the Metropolitan Missions Dept. and the second from the Campus Ministry Department of the State Convention, to pro- vide the funds for two students to work for us. Steve Smith took a social geographical survey of our area and our churches and put this into an audio-visual form that is available to in- terested churches and groups.

Dale Hughes worked with youth programs encouraging summer mission tours and resort ministries. These were something less than successful but the need is still there

We were sorry to lose the services of Nancy and Dick Dickinson who went to Tennessee but feel very fortunate to have a fine young couple, Don and Gwen Phillips as houseparents and Mrs. Donna Lail as director. The home has served 56 children and youth since its begin- ning.

At the last meeting, the committee authorized the request of $1800.00 aid from the State Convention to the Association and also approved requests for Pastoral aid for several of our churches, Oak Grove, Glencoe, Colonial Hills and Holly Hill.

We encourage the use of the new Church Mission Committee Manual published by the Home Mission Board. We also encourage the use of the slide program on the Associational survey by every church in the association.

Respectfully submitted, Charles Jones, Chairman Associational Missions Committee

TIME, PLACE & PREACHER

The Time, Place and Preacher Committee recommends that the 107th Annual Session of the Mt. Zion Baptist Association be held on Tuesday, October 19 and Wednesday, October 20, 1976.

The Eastlawn Baptist Church will host the Tuesday morning session and the Tuesday eve- ning session will be held at the Holly Hill Baptist Church.

Cross Roads Baptist Church of Hillsborough will host the Wednesday morning session of the meeting.

The Committee also recommends that the Annual Sermon be brought by Rev. Tom Denton with Rev. Larry Thompson serving as alternate.

A further recommendation is made by the committee that Rev. C. C. Vaughn deliver the Doctrinal message with Rev. Jim Wayne as alternate.

Respectfully submitted, Elmer Joyner, Chairman

EVANGELISM

"BE RECONCILED TO GOD AND MAN" was the theme of the 29th Statewide Evangelism Conference at War Memorial Auditorium, Greensboro, February 3-5, 1975. Over 2,400 pastors and lay persons heard excellent speakers emphasize various phases of evangelism.

Youth Ministries Week was held at the North Carolina Baptist Assembly during June 9-13 for 520 youth and adults with the emphasis on evangelism, vocational guidance, and recrea- tion.

Some 11,000 youth, pastors and adult leaders attended the 5th statewide Youth Evangelism Night August 15 at the Greensboro Coliseum with many of our churches represented. Christian youth continue to share a strong witness for jesus Christ across our state.

The continuing response of youth and adults to Lay Evangelism Schools has been signifi- cant. In the past three and one-half years, 12,774 youth and adults have shared in this lay wit- ness training from 1,007 churches and 55 associations.

The Division of Evangelism is cooperating with the Brotherhood Department in Lay Renewal Weekends and Renewal Evangelism. Numerous teams of laymen from churches across the state are available upon request for Lay Renewal Weekends or Lay led Revivals.

We are encouraged to plan Simultaneous Revivals during the Spring of '76.

The 30th State-Wide Evangelism Conference will be held at the Civic Center Auditorium, Asheville, during February 2-4, 1976. As in the past, we anticipate that many of our Mt. Zion Pastors will share in this opportunity for inspiration and challenge.

Remember to pray daily for the work of evangelism in all the churches of our state, nation, and world. Your evangelism Committee is grateful to God for the commitment of our pastors and churches to Evangelism as the very heart of the Christian Mission.

Respectfully submitted,

In Christ,

Charles F. Jones, Chairman

WHAT DOES MISSIONS MEAN?

Out of files that really find no particular daily use came a folder of materials dating back to the days when Dr. W. O. Carver, Missions Enthusiast, and long-time professor at the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky, was doing his best to spread his own enthusiasm for missions. Two titles from his PLAN OF THE AGES stood out "The Meaning of Missions to the Christian," and "The Meaning of Missions to the Church." A fellowship of Christians from the Mt. Zion Baptist Association, on July 4, 1975, answered these titles put into question form.

Leaving the parking lot of the First Baptist Church of Burlington, June 28, thirty-four persons, both young people and adults, went out on what many of them claimed to be the most excit- ing event of life. About evenly divided between the First Baptist Church and her daughter, the Kinnett Memorial Baptist Church, the group travelled in two mini-buses and a "bug." While a few had been attracted by a fascination for a trip to Vermont, the novelty was soon enveloped in a sense of the call to service. A worship service in a roadside park on Sunday morning sealed that individual conviction and when the "missionaries" arrived in Montpelier Sunday evening, June 29, every one was eager for the morn to come when witnessing in the area could begin. With the city already divided into five residential districts, five teams of mission- aries went to work, a team in each district. Five simultaneously-held backyard BIBLE studies were held each morning, Monday through Friday. Music and puppetry were featured in a downtown location at noontime daily. With downtown musicals and home BIBLE studies Monday and Tuesday evenings, preparation was well made for outdoor revival services Wednesday through Friday evenings. Saturday morning was inevitable, and the departure was colored with mixed emotions that stood out quite obviously.1

Now, what does missions mean to the Christian? Let some of the answers from the sharing session on Friday evening at the Baptist Chapel in Montpelier, Vermont, suffice. "I never realized that there was such need." "I did not know that I could share my experience with Christ, or even tell a Bible story so naturally." "I never realized how much people need just plain love." "I did not know that I could really love as I have come to love these children." "What a joy it really is to feel that you can be a real missionary."

30

Now, what does missions mean to the Church ? The consciousness of fellowship bound by common concern and effort did something wonderful to both the First Baptist Church and the Kinnett Memorial Baptist Church of the Mt. Zion Baptist Association. If nothing else was accomplished, a cooperative mission effort, a fellowship in missions, erased for both churches some fears fear that this group of two separate units could not effectively work together, fear of individualism, of jealousy, or of clannishness. MISSIONS wiped out all these fears. The missionaries soon knew that they were not two groups, but one Christian body under the Headship of Christ.

Never before has there been a closer relationship between those Christians who are the First Baptist Church and those who are the Kinnett Memorial Baptist Church. And what of missions to Vermont? Ask members of the church in its capital, and they will doubtless answer that missions means growth. The Lord is still adding from those families who felt the earnestness of missionaries from the Mt. Zion Baptist Association of North Carolina.

Respectfully submitted, J. H. Waugh, Jr. Associational Historian

CHURCH MINISTRIES & TRAINING

Mt. Zion churches reported an on-going enrollment of 1208 in the Fall of 1974. Eighteen churches were involved. Four churches reported forty-four members in new member orienta- tion. Three Churches reported forty people in Church Leader Training. One church reported six people in a member training project. Statistics are not complete for publication of Fall 1975 figures in time for the annual meeting.

Several churches which reported no on-going enrollment reported special training classes.

A primary function of your Church Training Director was to direct the Vacation Bible School Clinics at First Baptist in Mebane on April 28, 1975. Two hundred and thirty-five peo- ple were enrolled in the morning and evening Clinics.

YOUTH & FAMILY SERVICE

The excitement of working with several agencies, as the courts and the law enforcement agencies within our Association, grows each year. Almost daily, new opportunities to minister become available. Our work continues to reach a varied and challenging people.

Recruiting, sharing, training, and orienting new adults to work in a one-to-one basis with needy youth is still one of our urgent needs.

Drug addiction and alcoholism among youth and children is still our number one problem.

In addition to dealing directly with the problems associated with the areas of work as de- scribed in the title of the task, evangelistic opportunities are increasing. Also, "the fields are in- deed white" in this area of our work. We covet your prayers. Members of churches are urged to contact us if we can be of any help to you.

ORDINATIONS

During the past year the ordinations committee examined the following men concerning their acceptability for ordination: Bobby Fann, of Altamahaw, Bob Shackleford, of Hocutt Memorial and Monte Fox, of Fairview and Colonial Hills.

They were examined concerning their conversion experience, their sense of call to the min- istry, and why they were seeking ordination. They were asked about their concept of God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit; their concept of sin, the devil, salvation, heaven, hell and last things. They were asked about their position concerning the ordinances, the denomination and their function in the evangelism of the lost. They were asked about future plans for education and training.

Each of these men were found acceptable and were recommended to their respective churches for ordination.

Respectfully submitted, Joseph D. Lang Chairman

BAPTIST CHILDREN'S HOMES

Christian child care provided by the Baptist Children's Homes of North Carolina is a cooperative mission. It was through the life, teaching and ministry of Christ and under the leadership of the Holy Spirit that North Carolina Baptists launched their child care ministry 90 years ag. Today it is recognized as one of the outstanding ministries of its kind in the nation.

The lives of more than 3,700 people were affected in a significant way through the services of the Homes during the past year. Daily care and related services were provided 1,524 children. Of this number, 1,061 were in continuing programs while 463 received casework, counseling, and referral services. While we were caring for the children, a close working rela- tionship was maintained with 2,178 adults in an effort to reestablish homes and strengthen family relationships.

New and exciting developments are in progress throughout the state. During the past year emergency shelters were opened in Charlotte and Forest City to meet the needs of children requiring immediate assistance. Both Broyhill Home and Mills Home will have a new cottage for children constructed during the next year. Progress is being made to expand facilities at Odum Home. Increasing numbers of families are opening hearts and homes for the care of foster children. All of these indicate a living, vital and growing ministry to people.

The award winning film, "The Mountain Within," meets with praise and appreciation wherever it is shown. It will continue to be available by request, either to the Communica- tions Department of the Baptist State Convention or to the Children's Homes.

A cooperative mission requires that the parties involved have a clear, common purpose to which they are firmly committed, undergirded by mutual trust, and clean communications. These three factors characterize the relationships between the Baptists of North Carolina and their Children's Homes. Through the Cooperative Program and the Thanksgiving Offering, Baptist throughout the state can share a commitment to Christian child care. In response, the staff of the Children's Homes is committed to translate this support into a dynamic ministry of

32

love and concern for children and families in need. With God's continued blessing we will move together to fulfill our mission.

Robert Murphy

CAMPUS MINISTRY

Although there are almost thirty of us attempting some distinctly Christian witness as Bap- tists or with BSU on the campuses of North Carolina, we know that we cannot do the job alone.

There will be worship periods, study sessions, fellowship hours, missions opportunities, outreach and witness groups, and attempts to make our faith "applicable" to college life from Cullowhee to Wilmington. Chaplains will be seeking to project a ministry to faculty, adminis- trators, internationals, married and graduate students as well as undergraduates. Students will give over $7,000 for missions and send their fellows around the world as witnesses. Baptist faculty and local pastors will join us in teaching, leadership training and deepening of Chris- tian commitments.

Of equal significance in reaching students, however will be the work of pastors, Sunday School teachers and other committed Christians in the churches from which these persons come. It is our hope to work together in a number of ways during the coming year to strengthen each other and seek even more effective ways of serivce.

Respectfully submitted,

HOMES FOR THE AGING

There has never been a year in the history of your Baptist Homes when more people have sought the services of the Homes. This has been true particularly of the aging sick person. Almost daily, calls come from older persons and their families, inquiring about admission to one of your five resident Homes and the Skilled Nursing Care Facility.

Today there are some 21,000,000 Americans 65 and above, and this number, it is antici- pated, will grow by over 300,000 a year in the years ahead. The needs of aging people are over- whelming, and we must strive diligently to meet those needs.

Although we can minister in our North Carolina Baptist Homes to only 230 persons at any given time, we have served hundreds of aging people through the twenty-four years that we have been on the scene at Resthaven, the Hayes Home, and the Nursing Care Unit, in Winston-Salem, and in our Homes at Albermarle, Hamilton, and Yanceyville. As God con- tinues to bless us and lead us, we will make every effort to expand our ministry to help as many older persons as possible in the years ahead. We can do this only by the grace of the Lord and by the increased concern and giving of our Baptist people.

Gifts for 1974-75 from our Baptist Churches, through the Cooperative Program and through the 3rd Sunday of February Offering for the Homes, reflect a very encouraging increase. This is great, and we are grateful especially since four out of every five persons who live in our Homes depend upon these love gifts for their care! Your love gift is a life-line to these deserv- ing older persons, and they could not be cared for in the majority of cases, if it were not for you.

The most exciting development in the past year has been the experience of obtaining one of the most beautiful locations in the Blue Ridge mountains of North Carolina for the proposed Western North Carolina Baptist Home. This site is a twenty-one acre tract of land overlooking the city of Asheville, better known as the Pearson Estate, on Richmond Hill, in Northwest Asheville. God Himself, we feel, has guided us in discovering this beautiful site.

Plans initially will include 50 rooms for residents, with living room, dining room, library, chapel, activities room, and other necessary rooms. With the completion of this Home, North Carolina Baptists will be enlarging their base of ministry to almost 300 persons, and older peo- ple from Western North Carolina will have a facility to serve the hundreds in their area now

33

and in the years to come.

PRAY for the ministry of your Baptist Homes for the Aging. GIVE as liberally as possible that the overwhelming needs of older people in our midst might be met more adequately. VISIT the Homes and see first-hand the personal joy that your gifts bring. Know that your ministry to even one of these dear older people is a ministry as unto Christ Himself.

Respectfully submitted,

Mrs. Doris Thompson

THE BAPTIST FOUNDATION

Chartered in 1919 by the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina, the North Carolina Baptist Foundation, Inc. has sought to assist individuals throughout the state in their estate planning, providing ways to support Baptist institutions and mission work on a permanent basis. Property and funds placed with the Baptist Foundation are invested by a convention elected board of directors with the income paid annually to the institution or mission cause designated by the donor.

Individual assistance is provided Baptists Throughout the state in the establishment of trusts that not only benefit the donor but also support the Christian ministries of our denomination in a lasting, perpetual way.

During the past two years, $330,070.41 has been given to the N.C. Baptist Foundation, Inc , in the way of annuity trusts. In this type trust, the donors reserve the right to the income from the investments for their lifetime and then the income will be paid to the Baptist cause specified in the original trust agreement. The laws of our land provide to the donor certain tax advantages for the gift portion of these transactions. Wills still account for a major portion of the funds held in trust by the Foundation.

New gifts to be held in trust by the N.C. Baptist amounted to $635,079.57 during 1974-75 fis- cal year. Added to the market value of assets held from previous years brings the total value to $2,331,559.67 as of June 30, 1975. Income from all assets held by the Foundation which have been or will be distributed to designated beneficiaries in the near future amounted to $76,- 257.82 for the past 12 months.

For services offered by the Foundation to individuals or churches, please contact Mr. Edwin Coates, Executive Secretary, N.C. Baptist Foundation, Inc. P.O. Box 26508, Raleigh, N.C. 27611 (Tel. No. 919-833-1605). All inquiries and assistance are considered confidential and personal matters.

CHRISTIAN ACTION LEAGUE

The Director of the Christian Action League, and our new President, Bill Wallace, wish to express deepest appreciation to the many friends and supporters of the work of the League in the Mt. Zion Baptist Association. Our program depends upon you for its success. You provide the money, you furnish the prayer support, and you furnish the "clout" which the League has in its efforts. With trustees and friends and supporters in every Association in the State, we have a broad base of support. As we do the work of God in North Carolina, we are so very conscious of our dependency upon Him and for the wonderful way in which you have sup- plied our needs.

The General Assembly has been in session this year. A bill was introduced by Representa- tive Dan Lilley of Kinston to close every beer joint in North Carolina at midnight. Under the present law these places can stay open until 2:30 in the morning from the last Sunday in April through the last Sunday in October. The bill failed to receive enough support in the House ABC Committee to pass.

A bill was introduced by Representative Jimmy Love of Sanford to strengthen the state-wide statute regulating the flow of pornography. This proposed change would have given the Dis- trict Solicitor discretionary power in the matter of the adversary hearing, and would have

34

defined hardcore pornography in the Public Nuisance Section of the Law. This bill also failed to get the nod of the House Judiciary One Committee. We will be back in a later session with both of these concerns.

We continue to need your support. The most dependable thing to do is to place the Chris- tian Action League in the budget of your church for a definite amount each month. As you do this, we will continue to be able to serve.

The League will be promoting Alcoholism Awareness Sunday in January and Highway Safety Sunday in August. Your support of these two efforts will help to save the lives of multitudes of innocent people in North Carolina. God created human life and thereby made it sacred. We are to recognize the sacredness of human life and seek to preserve it for God in ev- ery way that is possible.

THE BIBLICAL RECORDER

Baptist state papers claimed more attention than usual at the 1975 meeting of the Southern Baptist Convention in Miami Beach this year. In the celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the Cooperative Program, it was revealed that they had played a tremendous part in the growth of our denomination. Louie D. Newton introduced all the 33 editors of state papers and made a comparison of circulation of each in 1975 with that of 1925 when the Cooperative Program was born. Many were not in existence at that time, however, but this in itself reveals some- thing of Southern Baptist growth.

In giving a special committee report on state papers, H. Franklin Paschall reported that pre- sent circulation is 1 3/4 million and recommended that the convention reaffirm its goal of get- ting a state paper into two million Baptist homes by 1980. The committee recommended a vigorous campaign in all states to help accomplish this, and also recommended that state papers be incorporated in all local church budgets.

The BIBLICAL RECORDER is one of those 33 state papers, and one of the oldest, and we hope, one of the best. In spite of continued problems for religious publications because of in- flation, and sky-rocketting postage costs, the circulation of the RECORDER remains above 112,000. Congregations including it in their budgets for all their families are the ones which have an informed membership. It is our hope that North Carolina Churches will take seriously the recommendation that state papers be incorporated in local church budgets for all their member families. Already more than 1,000 churches in North Carolina are doing this, and more congregations do so each year. Pastors and deacons should initiate such action, and it should be supported by all the organizations in the church.

The BIBLICAL RECORDER has covered many sensitive issues this past year. Words of ap- preciation have come from Baptist people all across the state, for they are aware that an "in- formed people is the bulwark of Baptist democracy."

The RECORDER continues to operate on a limited budget, and with an altogether too small staff. Local churches can help us by understanding these limitations, and by renewing their subscription plans promptly.

Ray K. Hodge, pastor of First Church, Kinston, says: "One of the easiest tasks I have had as a pastor is to lead churches to include and keep the denominational paper in the church budget. It is such a bargain that trying to save a few dollars by not subscribing to it for our families is too costly. It would be like saving the expense of regular visits to the dentist, only to pay more in various ways later."

His advice is well taken.

Respectfully submitted,

Marsh Lyall,

Biblical Recorder Representative

BAPTIST HOSPITAL

There have been many significant developments, in several different areas, at your Baptist Hospital during the past year.

35

The new ambulatory care unit is now open, making possible enlarged and improved ser- vices for the Emergency Room, Out-patient Clinics, Physical Therapy and other departments. Renovation of the West Wing will be complete and renovation on the South Wing will begin in early August. The third floor of the Progressive Care U nit has been remodeled to provide 26 beds, therapy room and other improved facilities for Psychiatric services.

The long-awaited EMI-scanner is now in use and is already proving beneficial in detecting blood clots, tumors, strokes and other abnormalities of the brain.

A Family Practice Center opened July 1, 1975 to offer more primary medical care for patients and also to provide specialized training for physicians who choose to enter Family Practice.

During the year the hospital had its biennial review by the Joint Commission on Hospital Accreditation. All areas of operation received an excellent report, but physician service, nurs- ing service and administration all received especially high commendation.

Despite the continued rise in costs for services and materials the hospital has been able to operate in the black. The administration and department heads confer frequently and make diligent efforts to see that the hospital operates as efficiently and economically as possible.

Gifts from the Baptist churches have been very gratifying. During the calendar year of 1974 the hospital received $258,898 through the Cooperative Program and $392,000 through the Mother's Day Offering. Hospital staff members have participated in Cooperative Program pro- motion in cooperation with the State Convention Division of Stewardship and Cooperative Program Promotion.

The Department of Pastoral Care has opened a counseling center in Raleigh, its second satellite center. Plans are developing for a third satellite in the western part of the state. The Department has established a scholarship fund as a memorial to Dr. Richard K. Young, the department's first director, who died December 31. Full re-accreditation was given the School of Pastoral Care in December by the Association of Clinical Pastoral Education.

During the past year, Mr. Reid T. Holmes retired as President of the hospital, after serving in the hospital administration for 29 years.

RADIO AND T.V.

Your Radio and Television Commission is on the threshold of reaching out through videotape to reach additional hundreds of thousands of unsaved individuals with the Gospel of redemption.

Undergirding the Radio and Television Commissions's future is the fact that its electronic media ministry is performed in the name of the growing, Bible-believing Southern Baptist denomination. Doors are opened to this denominational agency which remain closed to other religious broadcasters.

The Commission has learned the importance of mail response to its programs and does everything possible to trigger this repsonse. Then, as a result of receiving such mail, the Com- mission can send out even more printed material which deals directly with the Christian life and with salvation through Christ.

Commission records indicate that in the past 10 months, October, 1974 July, 1975, there have been 217 individuals accepting Christ as Saviour as a result of one of the programs, 642 rededicating their lives to Christ, and 560 requesting more information about becoming a Christian. There were 143 "decision coupons" returned which left the decision unclear, for a total of 1,562 decision responses.

A new evangelistic series called "The Athletes" is moving toward completion with a launch- ing date of January, 1976, planned now. There will be 1 3 quarter-hour episodes in the series when finished. The athletes featured spoke of their place in the sports world, and their rela- tionship to Christ.

The "Human Dimension" series also will be adding 13 new half-hour films to television early next year. This series portrays contemporary problems and Christian solutions.

The two newest radio programs produced and distributed by the Commission are "Soul Searchers," now on 50 black stations with excellent response, and "N ight Song," a 15 minute stereo music program featuring The Centurymen (100 voice Commission singing group) and played five nights a week between midnight and seven a.m.

36

The Radio-TV Commission currently produces and distributes 3730 programs weekly for broadcast throughout the world to an estimated 100 million listeners and viewers. The value of the public service time given to these programs last year by commercial stations came to more than nine million dollars.

It is gratifying to see how God has blessed the efforts of the Radio and Television Commis- sion through its 20 years in Texas. The denomination owns a tool which will enable it to touch people who are virtually beyond the reach of all but electronic media.

The Southern Baptist Convention of which we are all integral parts, is on the verge of possessing one of the finest videotape television production facilities in the world. Let us all use it, locally and nationally, to extend the Good News of Christ to the far corners of the world.

Respectfully submitted,

Rev. Charles Rutt,

Radio and T.V. Representative

ANNUITY BOARD

The Southern Baptist Convention Annuity Board serves as a lifeline of support for 10,034 retired pastors and other church-related workers or their widows.

During 1974, the Board paid about $15-1/2 million in retirement and other protection benefits to these annuitants. In the Board's 57-year history, it has paid a total of over $125 million in retirement and protection benefits.

The Annuity Board also holds in trust and invests retirement contributions form 38,000 pas- tors, other church staff and denominational employees which will be converted into an- nuity benefits when they retire.

These funds held in trust amount to a record $353,445,743. While this seems a large amount of money, it needs to be noted that this must be divided by the number of future annuitants it will serve for the remainder of their lifetimes after retirement.

The Annuity Board would have enjoyed its best year ever in 1974, but the stock market's downturn intervened. Realized and unrealized losses in income from bonds, short-term in- vestments, and common stocks amounted to $21 million.

Gains in other investments reduced the net loss to $11.3 million, or three per cent based on average investments. All investment funds, whether church-related or having other connec- tions, suffered from the stock market decline.

As the stock market began to recover in early 1975, the losses also began to be recovered, Board President Darold H. Morgan said.

In December, 1974, the Board issued a 13th Check to annuitants. It amounted to more than $675,000 and was equal to one month's benefits. It is called a 13th check because it is issued above and beyond the 12 regular monthly benefit checks distributed to annuitants.

In North Carolina 2134 churches and associations and 2616 staff members are currently par- ticipating in the Southern Baptist Protection Program. Only 30 of our 40 churches and mis- sions are participating in the annuity program. Church staff members are eligible for retire- ment, life and hospital insurance benefits.

Additional information about the Annuity Board may be obtained through the Develop- ment Office, Annuity Board, SBC, 511 North Akard Building, Dallas, Texas 75201.

James Dunn

Annuity Representative

CHRISTIAN HIGHER EDUCATION

COLLEGES ACTIVE IN MISSION SUPPORT

Baptist colleges in North Carolina see themselves as active participants in the Christian mis- sion to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with all people everywhere. In addition to the impor- tant role of preparing future lay leaders for local churches, the colleges continue a strong emphasis upon ministerial and church-related vocational training.

37

In April of 1975, our seven colleges reported a total of 715 persons who were preparing for careers in church leadership. Most of these persons will complete their preparation ty attend- ing a seminary. Southern Baptist seminaries listed an enrollment of 303 graduates of North Carolina Baptist colleges in the spring of 1975. The Foreign Mission Board has under appoint- ment 152 of our graduates at present, more than 6% of the total number of current missionary personnel. In addition, a significant number of Baptist College trained persons serve in strategic posts with the Home Mission Board, Baptist state conventions and associational mis- sions throughout the Southern Baptist Convention. Baptist college students receive excellent experience and training for church and missionary service through Baptist Youth Corps. Ap- proximately 100 Baptist college students were assigned to churches for the summer of 1975. The colleges furnish one-half of the Youth Corps worker's salary, and thus enjoy a vital partnership with churches and students in summer mission work.

COOPERATIVE PROGRAM VITAL TO COLLEGES

With the exception of what students pay, the CoopecVve Program continues to be the largest single source of annual income for our colleges. In these days of financial uncertainty, the colleges are grateful for the level of support which North Carolina Baptist have main- tained. It is accurate to say that the ministry of North Carolina Baptist colleges, as we know it today, is the direct result of Cooperative Program support.

BAPTIST COLLEGE DAY

Another way the churches help to relieve the colleges' financial burden is through the an- nual offering on Father's Day. Designated for student aid, this offering gives much-needed assistance to many students from Baptist churches, making an education on a Christian col- lege campus possible.

THE NEED TO ENROLL BAPTIST STUDENTS

Pastors and other church leaders can assist their young people and our colleges by en- couraging attendance at a Baptist college. Information is available in brochure form, free of charge, from the Council on Christian Higher Education of the Baptist State Convention in Raleigh. Each of the colleges pledges to North Carolina Baptist young people that no qualified student will be turned away for purely financial reasons. Through grants, loans and work scholarships, an education is available for anyone who seriously seeks it.

A PLEDGE AND A PLEA

North Carolina Baptist colleges are committed to Christian values, an to an active partner- ship with their fellow-Baptists in evangelism, missions, education and social concern.

Your Baptist colleges sincerely solicit the supportive prayers of North Carolina Baptist churches, that we will be aware of and receptive to Divine guidance in performing the work which we have been given to do.

Respectfully submitted,

Ralp E. Jones, Jr.

Christian Higher Education Representative

STATE MISSIONS

Southern Baptists' compassion for world missions must also include the real needs of our own counties and state. State and associational missions are indeed part of the world mission imperative. Without neglecting distant lands, we must continue to build a strong state mis- sions program throughout North Carolina.

State missions can be divided into two major categories: (1) STRENGTHENING and (2) LENGTHENING ministries.

Strengthening ministries help develop local church organizations such as Sunday School, WMU, Church Training, Brotherhood, etc. These programs enable local churches to realize their own mission potential. Workshops, seminars, and conferences are conductd throughout the year for the development of local church programs.

38

The second type of state missions are those ministries that lengthen the local church's wit- ness. These are cooperative efforts requiring the resources of more than one church or associ- ation. Examples of these programs are resort missions, deaf ministries, chaplaincy ministries, city and metropolitan missions, church loans and lot aid, seminary extension, migrant mis- sions, etc. Many of these ministries are co-sponsored by district associations and the Southern Baptist Home Mission Board.

All state mission ministries are in some way cooperative efforts of local churches and asso- ciations. Church and associational development, in fact, is one of the primary goals of state missions in North Carolina. The purpose is to build strong "mission stations" across the state as a foundation for the overall support of world missions, Christian education, and benevolences.

State missions in North Carolina is supported by the Cooperative Program and the annual State Missions Offering in September.

HISTORICAL SKETCHES OF MT. ZION CHURCHES

Brief histories of Mt. Zion Churches are recorded in the Minutes of the years as herewith listed. The Association Historian suggests that every church in the Association have copies of the Associational Minutes bound every ten years and keep them in the local church libraries. This will make the Minutes of the years available to all the churches, and those bound volumes will grow more valuable with each passing year.

Although our Association has had Historians almost from the date of its organization still the clerk was not able to find the history of any church recorded in the Minutes until 1921. Just why the sketches of other years were not recorded in the Minutes is inexplainable.

At the 1874 session of the Association it was decided to elect a Historian annually. The Minutes of 1875 record that "The report of the Historian was adopted and ordered to be recorded in the "Books of Records of the Association." No trace of this book exists. The historical sketches from 1921 are shown in Minutes as follows:
